It's not $60, it's 60 gold, so you don't know it's real dollar value. but we can try to figure it out by comparing it to another item in game. Let's use the barn. The barn costs 6000 gold, but you provide all the building materials so you're really just paying Robin's labor for the three days it takes to build. 6000 gold/3 days = 2000 gold/day, parsnips are 60 gold/parsnip, so:
2000/60 = 33 parsnips/day is the equivalent of Robin's wage.
That's something we can compare to the real world. According to some loose googling the average carpenter wage in the US is $13 to $33/hr, let's split the difference and call it $20/hr. 8 hrs/day x $20/hr = $160.
Ok, accoring to this amazon link a pound of parnsips is $2 and contains roughly 5 parsnips. $2/5 parnsips = $0.40/parnsip, so a carpenter in the real world can buy $160/$0.40 = 400 parnsips/day.
So either Robin makes 33 parnsips * $0.40/parsnip = $13.2 per day = $1.65 per hour or parsnips in the Stardew Valley world are worth $160/33 parsnips = $5/parsnip.
