I think you talking about the value of your coins and i think you receive 200mbtc that's why the result is $83 usd.
This is the chart of bitcoin names or units.. Check this link

Bitcoins are divisible up to eight decimals and wallets display them in various guises. Some will show complete bitcoins, others will divide them up into smaller units. mBTC is a common one so it looks like that's what your wallet is displaying them in. 1000 mBTC is a complete bitcoin.

hello all, recently a close friend sent me 200 bitcoins through multibit, i got an account set up and everything. but i thought bitcoins were worth an insane amount of money, ( CAD- bitcoins are $573) but it says its only worth $83.72. the number of bitcoins it has in the account says 200.000 am i wrong on the amount of bitcoins i have?

can you share screenshoot of your wallet? or you can share your bitcoin address?
you must learn about mbit, bits, satosi and bitcoin

200mBTC is actually quite good point to start with. You can try to purchase something with it and experience the new way of payment transfer.

Maybe it is only 200mBTC... Since 1 BTC is about $415 now, 200mBTC = 0.2BTC is only about $83.
