The minimum wage in 1964 was $1.25
But you were paid in REAL SILVER COINS.
$1.25 in silver coins is 0.9 ounces of silver. 0.9 ounces of silver is worth $58 today. That's how much $1.25 of your 1964 or earlier silver coins are worth if you find any.
If you were still just getting paid 0.9 ounces of silver per hour today in real silver the minimum wage would be $58 and that would be ENTRY LEVEL minimum work.
