A British Shilling and the pre-decimal Shillings of any British Empire/Commonwealth countries are part of long obsolete currencies. They have been long withdrawn from circulation and no longer have an exchange rate with any other currency.
At the time of Britain's conversion to decimal currency in 1971, the old Shilling converted to 5 New Pence.
5 New Pence (or 1 old Shilling) GBP in 1971 had the purchasing power of about $0.72 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.

Value of a Quarter from Bermuda?
When I was there the nearest coin to a quarter was a two shilling coin, which had a value of about 28 cents (American) but that was a few years ago.MoreIt depends on the definition of "a few" years, lol. Bermuda has used its own dollar currency since 1970. Before that they used British shillings and pounds, but when Britain adopted decimal pounds Bermuda converted its currency to dollars pegged to the US dollar. The coins are the same size and value as US coins and exchange one-for-one, so a Bermudan quarter is worth the same as a US quarter.
