How do you go from 78.54 (modern pounds equivalent to 15 shillings) to 64.1325? I don't understand that step.

Oops! Thanks for that. Initially I used 1841 as the year, and later found out it should have been 1843. For some reason there was a huge change in value between 1841 and 1843. That 64.13 was just a leftover I forgot to replace. Fixed!
