If I got a quarter from the tooth fairy in 1973-1976, taking in inflation, what would be the equivalent...?

Question

money amount for the tooth fairy to give for a tooth?

And if you could let me know where you found the information, that would be most helpful.

Thanks so much!

Answer 1

$0.25/cents in 1973 has the same buying power as $1.22 today

$0.25/cents in 1974 has the same buying power as $1.10 today

$0.25/cents in 1975 has the same buying power as $1.01 today

$0.25/cents in 1976 has the same buying power as $0.95 today
