The traditional unit of
weight for gold is the troy ounce of the Anglo-Saxon system of weights
and measures. Despite the gradual conversion to the metric system,
the troy ounce remains a traditional fixture of the gold trade and the
most important basis for expressing quotations on a majority of the
leading gold markets.
