NOTE - This historical conversion is the result of many calculations and considerations by a purpose designed program for which I can take no credit. The resulting answer should only be regarded as an approximation.
The Royal Mint did not issue any coins called a Quarter-Shilling, but a quarter of a Shilling was a Threepence, a coin that was issued for hundreds of years. The Bailiwick of Jersey, one of the Channel Islands, issued a "One Fourth of a Shilling" coin variously from 1957 to 1966.
One British 1733 Shilling would have the purchasing power of about 6.7 British Pounds today
1/6d - one shilling and sixpence for a pint of milk.
One Twelfth of a Shilling, apart from the obvious answer of One Penny, was a coin issued by the States of Jersey from 1877 to 1964. Other fractional denominations included One Twenty-fourth of a Shilling and One Forty-eighth of a Shilling, possibly recognisable as the equivalent of a British Halfpenny and Farthing respectively. Prior to 1877, it was even more confusing with coins such as One Thirteenth of a Shilling, One Twenty-sixth of a Shilling and One Fifty-second of a Shilling.
One shilling is equal to 100 cents. This is based on the decimal system where one shilling is equivalent to one dollar, which contains 100 cents. In historical contexts, particularly in the UK before decimalization in 1971, a shilling was worth 12 pence, but in modern currency terms, it is simplified to 100 cents.
One Shilling GBP in 1940 had the purchasing power of about £1.80 GBP today.
To estimate the value of one shilling from 1775 in today's USD, we can use historical inflation data. One shilling is approximately equivalent to one-twentieth of a pound sterling, and using historical conversion rates and inflation calculations, it is estimated that one shilling could be worth around $5 to $10 today. However, this value can vary based on the specific historical context and the method of calculation used.
In the old coinage system, there were two tanners (or sixpences) to one shilling. A guinea was the equivalent of 1 pound & 1 shilling. There were 20 shillings in a pound. Therefore there were 42 tanners in a guinea.
It is worth one Kenya shilling.
Sorry, There Is No Antonym For Shilling. =( Bye Guys
A guinea was equivalent to one pound and one shilling (£1, 1s) in old British money (£sd). It's modern equivalent would be one pound and 5 pence (£1.05).
One question at a time please. I presume you refer to British Shillings. These coins already have a valuation using the format - "What is the value of a 1932 British Shilling?"
