I'm not so much asking about the actual deflated value, I mean what was culturally the equivalent of flipping a cheap coin (quarter) back then? Like a penny that was quarter sized lol

Since it wasn't the equivalent of $ 30.000 by far and presumably used more likely similar to ours, i assume it was that very same quarter, that was usually used to flip the coin.
