The Bank of England 10 Shilling note was withdrawn from circulation and ceased to be legal tender in November 1970, therefore it has no exchange rate with any current currency. At decimalisation, it converted to 50 New Pence.

Ten Shillings GBP in 1970 had the purchasing power of about £5.20 GBP today.

Ten Shillings GBP in 1970 had the purchasing power of about $8.27 USD today.

NOTE - This historical conversion is the result of many calculations and considerations by a purpose designed program. The resulting answer should only be regarded as an approximation based on current exchange rates.
