This is a very difficult question to answer. It is basically impossible to express it as a 21st century value- it may be helpful (and more accurate) to think about it this way:
1 drachma is typically a days wages for a semi skilled worker in Ancient Greece. The drachma is made of silver and can be cut into a demi drachma or even further split to represent different amounts. 6000 drachma = 1 talent= 60 lbs (give or take) of silver. It cost Athens 1 talent to build 1 war ship.
Hope this helps at least but the drachma into context!
