These retail ads are incredible because they make you realize how affordable and accessible silver was early in the last century. IP: Logged

In 2008, $1.00 from 1903 is worth: $25.24 using the Consumer Price Index $20.16 using the GDP deflator $60.93 using the value of consumer bundle $111.10 using the unskilled wage $147.46 using the nominal GDP per capita $556.94 using the relative share of GDP In 1903, average hourly wages were between 23 and 28 cents an hour. Average monthly income was $62.50. Out of this 42.5% went for food, 23.3% for housing and 14.0% for clothing. So, a lot of these items were worth 1/2 a day's pay. IP: Logged
