Shame - decimal point in the wrong place! fourpence3farthin would be 1.9791pence in today's money, so 0.19791 of a pound......
I'm impressed though that Arjen could convert money from a system that was scrapped before he was born to today's money.....

Me too - especially as he lives in the Netherlands, not the UK. I had no idea that fourpence 3 farthings came to 1.9791 pence - but if that's the case, Arjen's right, it's .019791 of a pound.
:oops: :oops: :oops:
shame on me - MY decimal point in the wrong place.......
my apologies allround.....
