What is the value of Old Roman currency in terms of present day money?

Is their any way to compare what are the values of Old Roman currency such as the Denarius and the Sesertius in present day curency? Please don't answer in terms of gold and silver prices. I want to have a more precise idea. Is there anyone out there who has compared how much a loaf of bread, or a pound of meat cost back then? Keep in mind the inflation!!!!
