<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 4861386, member: 19463&quot;]Above we have some really good answers to the question &#039;what was it worth&#039;.&nbsp; My answer would include a question back to you about what a dollar (pound/euro) is worth.&nbsp; About 90 years ago, my mother was graduated as a Registered Nurse and took a job in a small town in Indiana for $1 a day plus a room in the county hospital &quot;Nurses&#039; Home&quot; which was sort of a dorm for young women with degrees.&nbsp; The Depression was going full tilt that year and having room and board was a big deal. This was long before &quot;Nursing Homes&quot; were places we sent grandma to live out her golden years.&nbsp; We pay RN&#039;s more today but make them house themselves.&nbsp; I suspect the &#039;deal&#039; was different in other places.&nbsp; That &#039;Home&#039; was still operating when she retired in 1974 but now I can not find any reference to it ever existing. </p><p><br /></p><p>Rome issued coins for somewhere between 700 and 1700 years depending on when you mark the start and stop.&nbsp; When you ask what a coin was worth, you need to be very specific about where and when as well as which coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
