I see the page states an exchange rate of 15 lojru'u to 1 meryru'u. From where does this figure originate?

Somebody, probably Nora LeChevalier, made it up.

I saw a price of something given in lojru'u somewhere, perhaps in CLL, perhaps
in la ckafybarja, and figured 15 sounded about right.

Unless the "logical rupee" has devalued together with the US dollar, it's
probably closer to 10 to 1 by now. An exchange rate should be given with
a date.
