The BLS (government agency) has an inflation calculator that says 12 cents in March 1962 is the same as $1.01 today.
My pile of Indian cents says "If only".
This is obviously FAKE NEWS !!!!
EVERYONE knows that NO gold coins could be owned in the US prior to 1975, so this has to be fake.
Those were the days !!!
Interesting.

Well, certainly the prices 'appear' to be so much cheaper, however, wages were much lower...Cheers, RickO
