Possibly a useful tool for novels set in the past!

I put in 444 for 1892, and it would have been worth 411.32 in 1896, yet buying 444 worth of goods in 1892 would have cost me 479.27 in 1896 for exactly the same things!

Worth goes down, price goes up.

Tundra, I'm so glad you found this!! I haven't tried any historical writing yet, but I still find this kind of thing absolutely fascinating!! :)
