Here's a 2001 list I missed on CVP, with 200 8x8 board piece values suggested by Zog (many of the values are clearly too low, e.g. for certain chess pieces, when using chess pawn = approx. 1888); included are the commoner (aka mann), and a [modern] elephant by another name (if I'm reading the notation right), the mann given a value of about 3.4 pawns when I worked out the ratio. The [modern] elephant (aka ferfil!?) relates in value to a knight here by having a slightly higher value than it, which may be slightly surprising. Note that a knight is given a value of about 2.7 pawns (that is, about 0.055 pawns less than a ferfil), i.e. it's thought worth under 3 pawns(!), while a bishop is given a value of about 3.14 pawns:
