what is 20 cents from 1930 worth today

REMEMBER!. I told you that "It ALL depends on the inflation rate!!!!!!!!!!!". So, why the difference? Because they have used inflation rate of 3.175%. So, if you use this number, then you will have: 1.03175^85 X .20=$2.85 approx.

It ALL depends on the "inflation rate". If you assume an average inflation rate of 3%, then (1.03)^85 X .20=$2.47 of taday's money.
