The average CPI (Consumer Price Index, as calculated by the US Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics) was 17.5 in 1925 and 212.425 in November 2008 (the last period for which figures are available). This is an increase of approximately 1,113.857%, implying that $989,992.32 in 1925 would equate to about $12,017,092.49 as of the end of November, 2008. This is not a valid relative worth index to use, in my opinion. If the amount of just under $1 million in 1925 is translated to relative worth using the scale of per capital GDP over time, or the scale of annual labor cost, the value of this is dramatically different.

Using the average inflation rate over the period between 1972 and 2009 of 4.62: * $1,000 in 1972 dollars would be worth $5,318 in 2009 dollars * $1,000 in 2009 dollars would be worth $188 in 1972 dollars.

The Euro was worth .86 American cents in January 1999 but was worth .98 American cents by the end of 1999. 1 US dollar in 1999 would equal roughly 1.30 US dollars in 2010.
As of the current exchange rate (which fluctuates daily), 1 British pound is approximately equal to 1.37 US dollars. Therefore, a 10 pence coin is equivalent to 0.1 pounds. Converting this amount to US dollars, 10 pence would be worth around 14 cents in US currency.

There are 20 nickels in one dollar, so 3 dollars would be equivalent to 60 nickels. Each nickel is worth 5 cents, so 60 nickels would be worth 300 cents or $3.00.
To convert dollars to nickels, first convert dollars to cents. Since there are 100 cents in a dollar, $10,500 is equal to 1,050,000 cents. Since each nickel is worth 5 cents, you would divide 1,050,000 by 5, resulting in 210,000 nickels.
Ten dollars from 1867 would buy the equivalent of over $158 worth of items. Ten dollars from today in 1867 currency would equal about 60 cents.
Using the average inflation rate over the period between 1972 and 2009 of 4.62: * $1,000 in 1972 dollars would be worth $5,318 in 2009 dollars * $1,000 in 2009 dollars would be worth $188 in 1972 dollars.

There are 100 cents in a dollar, so to convert dollars to cents, you would multiply by 100. Therefore, to find how many cents are in 5000 dollars, you would multiply 5000 by 100, which equals 500,000 cents.
As there are 100 cents in a dollar you simply divide the number of cents by 100 to find the number of dollars. 209.99 cents would equal $2.10 dollars (rounded up to the nearest cent) but $209.99 dollars would equal 20999 cents.
There are 20 nickels in 2 dollars. This is because each nickel is worth 5 cents, and there are 100 cents in a dollar. So, 2 dollars is equal to 200 cents, and when you divide 200 by 5, you get 20. Therefore, you would need 20 nickels to make 2 dollars.
