In 1882, a shilling was worth 12 pence, or 1/20th of a pound in the British currency system. The purchasing power of a shilling at that time would be equivalent to approximately £5 to £10 today, depending on the specific context and inflation rates. It was commonly used in everyday transactions, representing a modest amount of money for goods and services during the Victorian era.
