What is the value of a gem bu 1742 mf Mexico 8 reales pillar dollar?

The value of coins vary greatly with condition. Within mint state (new) coins the condition and value also varies greatly. If the coin mentioned were in fact truly a gem bu. Gem bu being defined as ms (mint state) 65 or better it would be quite valuable. Probably in the $ 10,000 range. If it were choice bu (ms 63) it would be closer to $ 2,500 and if it were just bu (ms 60) it would be valued at about $ 800. Circulated examples vf sell for about $ 200 and xf for $300. Since the value increases so dramatically between ms60 and ms65. It would be just about impossible to sell the coin as a gem bu without it being certified as to grade by one of the major coin certification services. Hope this helps.

What would 989 992 dollars and 32 cents be worth in 1925 compared to now?

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.
