What was a penny worth back then?
[edit]It would really help to put the prices into perspective to know what the wage for a day of labor or some other proxy was back in those days... 2A02:810A:8200:20B0:898D:CBA2:5E9D:3E65 (talk) 18:48, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
- It's hard to compare prices back then to modern prices, but I guess it is more or less equivalent to a few pounds. So 3 pennies for the best seats doesn't seem a lot, but at that time most people spent something like 90% of their money just for food and housing. --MrBurns (talk) 11:14, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
