In his book "When God Reigns: A Study in the Parables of Jesus" Dr. C. Michael Moss, the Director of The Bible Program at Ohio Valley University, cites the NIV Bible note that a mina was valued at three months' wages. He also states that if we were to calculate the Mina according to today's earnings at minimum wage a mina would be worth approximately $4,200.
