When I adjust for inflation and convert the currency, that is still $6,785.68 in 2007 dollars, or about £13,571 in 2007 GBP. Which is still cheap, but it helps to see it in today's dollars.

I wonder if that's why the modern shells produced by British Heritage rust so fast and so bad - because they don't get dipped any more? The pictures I've seen of modern replacement shells shows them all silver and shiny, not dipped black. Cool films - thanks for linking to them all!
