How much money is a shilling in American money?
Shillings are no longer legal tender in the UK and there is no direct currency exchange because of that. A shilling (UK) was a pre-decimal coin worth 12 old pence. After the UK decimalised its currency in 1971 most of the pre-decimal coins continued to remain legal tender but had their value changed, so a shilling became worth 5 new pence, a sixpence was worth 2 1/2 etc. Over the following months many of the old coins were withdrawn from circulation and ceased to be legal tender, but the shilling and 2 shilling coins (worth 5p and 10p) continued to be legal tender until the early 1990's when they were replace by coins what were much smaller, a size that is legal tender still. If the coin was still legal tender it would be worth about $0.08. currently the coins only value is as a collectable/antique, and so it depends on the year and condition of the coin. The value was much higher in the past - a shilling in 1830 might have been the equivalent of $30 today.

How much is a 1940's shilling worth in the us today?
Assuming you're referring to a British shilling, it has no current value in commerce. The coin's face value is equivalent to 5p; shillings and old-style 5p coins co-circulated up till the early 1990s when new and much smaller 5p coins were introduced. All older 5p and 1s coins were then withdrawn from circulation. However, many older shillings can be worth a premium to collectors - please post a new question with the coin's exact date.

Old British Columbia (BC) coins can have value depending on their rarity, condition, and demand among collectors. Certain coins, especially those minted in limited quantities or featuring unique designs, may be worth more than their face value. It's advisable to consult a coin collector or appraiser to determine the specific value of any old BC coins you may have.
What is the value of a King George V 3 Shilling coin?
George III Shillings do not have holes in them. The hole may have been bored, not at the mint, but by someone wanting to keep it with other coins on a string around the neck. I have some old British coins with holes, obviously not part of the original design. Any modification to a coin is very possibly illegal and makes the coin valueless as a collectible.
