Martin, I never answered this. I believe JSB fathered 20 children, but only 10 survived. I would not wish to have rid of any, but no doubt he would have welcomed the opportunity to limit his fecundity!
A little over the £10 but I'll let you off as it's in a good cause.
I think quite a ,lot of the suggestions have been. Perhaps inflation should be allowed? £10 (or the equivalent - Thalers?) in Bach's Germany would be a tidy sum now, for example.

That's a nice idea, but I need to rein this in. The presents should be inexpensive and appropriate to the recipient (for good or bad )
