This is awesome. Don't bother with any second-hand articles, go directly to the site. Delightful. Almost like when Hayne's manuals started branching out into fiction...
To generate a conversion rate from the Skyrim Septim to GBP, USD & Euro, we first had to establish a common ground between our world and the Elder Scrolls universe. We found this common ground in the form of the food items which can be bought and sold in both worlds. Carrots, spiced wine, goats cheese, and many other food items would be the key to generating our conversion rate.
So, we set about collecting both the Skyrim price and the UK price of items as varied as a leg of goat, pheasant breasts, bottles of spiced wine and salmon steaks.
In our currency conversion process, we also had to take into account the cost of producing food in the realm of Skyrim. Nothing is mass produced in this Nord wilderness, so we made the assumption that the value of this organically grown and pastorally-farmed food would be more akin to the organic produce you can buy in UK supermarkets.
And yes, you can view their conversion tables.
