Best Answer

A pennyweight is 24 grains or 1/240 th of a troy pound or 1/20 th of a troy ounce or 1.555 grams. A troy ounce of gold is worth about 880 US dollars (April, 2009). A pennyweight therefore is worth 44 dollars. A pennyweight is a unit of apothecary weight equal to 480 grains or one twelfth of a troy pound or 24 grams. Rubbish - that is a troy ounce and it weighs 31.1 grams anyway.
