I believe that you may be referring to a talent of silver. A talent was a unit of measure by weight. Some believe that a talent was equal to about 115 troy pounds.
A talent as a measure of money weighed around 33kg (75lb) of gold. In todays terms that's worth around 825,000 US Dollars or 415,679 UK Pounds. So 3200 Talents are worth around 2,640,000,000 US Dollars or 1,330,172,800 UK Pounds in todays terms. That would do me very nicely ;)
The Talent is an ancient unit of mass equal to 26 kg, as well as a unit of value equal to this amount of pure silver. 1 talent of silver is approximately 57.2 pounds.
$26,662,650 dollars or so. A heavy talent (used in biblical time) weighed about 130 pounds. 130 pounds is about 1895 troy ounces of silver. So 469 talents would be 888755 troy ounces of silver. 888,755 troy ounces times the current silver price of ~$30 per troy ounce would give you $26,662,650!
