One way to work this out would be to find out the price in 1950 of gold/silver, work out how much Gold £40,000 would have bought back then and then apply today's gold prices to arrive at the answer. In 1950 the average price of a troy ounce was $34.72. The GBP/USD exchange rate was roughly .42p to $1 so £40,000 was equivalent to $95,238. This would have bought ~2743 troy ounces. At today's gold price ($1245) this would be equivalent to $3,415,072 or £2,276,714. Obviously these are not exact but should be more or less correct.

The Australian Colonies were using the British currency in 1850 and Australian Dollars did not become the Australian currency until 1966. Five Pounds GBP in 1850 had the purchasing power of about $698.56 AUD today. 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.

To estimate the value of £10,000 in 1850 in today's money, we can use historical inflation rates. The average inflation rate in the UK has been about 2.5% per year since 1850. Using this rate, £10,000 in 1850 would be approximately equivalent to around £1.2 million to £1.5 million today. However, this is a rough estimate, and actual values can vary based on the specific inflation calculator or methodology used.
Probably about $ 12- 13 millions.

To find the value of 1850 British pounds in US dollars, you would need the current exchange rate. As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, the exchange rate fluctuates around 1 British pound being approximately 1.30 to 1.40 US dollars. Therefore, 1850 pounds would be roughly between 2,405 and 2,590 US dollars, but it's best to check the latest exchange rate for an accurate conversion.
