Title: Currency rate converter application for predates.
Post by: prashantakerkar on Sep 6, 2019

Do you feel it could be useful to know predated currency rates conversion values using currency converter application?

A Calendar control added in the currency converter application will allow the end user to select the predates ?

Example

I watched the Movie "Superman" in the theatre "Eros" in Churchgate, Mumbai, Maharashtra,India in the year 1985 when I was 15 years old.

I paid Rs 30 /- for ticket purchase. I would like to know how much I paid in US $ (dollars) currency for the ticket purchased using Currency convertor application.

Note : This is  predated way back in year 1985, in 20th century.

Today we are in the 21st century. Today's date : Friday 6th September 2019.
Today's currency rate 1US$ to INR = 71.

Eros theatre, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.

I don't get what you mean here. You want historical data that compares the value of one currency to another?

Thanks.

Yes. Can we get the Historical data that compares the value of one currency with another?

I watched Superman movie in Eros theatre located in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India in the Year 1985 when I was 15 years old. I paid INR 30 at that time by purchasing the movie ticket at the Eros theatre.

But how much I paid in US $ or GBP or Euros at that time by converting INR 30 to the above currencies for the movie ticket in 20th August  1985?

So Historical data currency converter application can assist in this regard?

Thanks & Regards,

Interestly, the Rupee was much stronger 80 years ago than it is today!

Thanks.

Similar to INR/USD currency rate conversion historical data, do we have historical data for all country currency to country currency conversion rates?

As a example : Year 1975 USD - Euro, USD - GBP, Euro - GBP, Euro - INR, GBP - INR.

Line graph plotting illustration could be useful for the same.
