Currency Value 1918
« on: Saturday 27 April 13 04:39 BST (UK) »
In a 1918 Australian Will, the beneficiaries were left 200 pounds.

Does anyone know where I could find out what the sum of money would be equivalent to today ?
An online ' currency converter ' didn't work for me .

Thank you ,
Morghana
