Question

What would the value of $100,000 in 1920 dollars be worth today?

Answer 1

Awesome question. But it will take time to calculate. It may increased 20 times its value.

Answer 2

Do you mean 1920 silver dollars?  None were minted.  A 1921 Morgan silver dollar in brilliant uncirculated is worth about $30 to $40.  But a 1921 Peace silver dollar is another story.  A brilliant uncirculated is worth about $250 to $2500 each.

Answer 3

A $1000 car in 1920 would now cost $30,000.  That's one measure.  Multiply by 30.

Or a bridge that would have cost 1m now costs 1b.  Multiply by 1,000.

For a long time gold was $35 an ounce.  Now it is $1000 an ounce.  Multiply by 30.

What if the 100k were SILVER DOLLARS?  Each silver dollar had .7736 ounces of silver and the current price is $18 an ounce.  Multiply by 14.
