do you know how much was a ticket for the London underground in the
early '60s?

In preparation for decimalisation in 1971, London Transport moved all
fares to be multiples of 6d, which had an exact conversion at 2.5p.
And they were one of the last organisations to make widespread use of
the half (new) penny before its abolition.

In doing this, they were one of the few large organisations to be
completely transparent about decimalisation. Most took the opportunity
to introduce a hidden price increase, even other nationalised
transport bodies. Scottish Omnibuses increased the fare from my home
town to the nearest city from 2s 3d (just over 11p) to 13p.
