DblTap is correct,
More weights and measure info (or trivia....you decide)
The grain is the same amount in Avoirdupois(what we use), Troy or Apothecary weight.
Avoirdupois
1 pound = 7000 grains
1 ounce = 437 1/2 grains
1 dram = 27 1/3 grains
Metric conversions
1 grain = 0.0648 gram
1 gram = 15.432 grains
I left out the troy and apothecary equivalents as this is probably more than anyone cared to know,
trivia-if you don't care, information-if you do............
