They weigh the same...One Pound.
Libra and Pound are equivalents in different languages, as well as pfund, pond, pund etc.. Nevertheless different systems created different equivalencies. I used the unit gram from the International System of Units to make the comparison among the different systems. 1 libra [ancient Rome] = 323 grams 1 libra [Italy] = 339 grams 1 pound [Troy] = 373.241 721 6 grams 1 lb, lbs, pound [Avoirdupois] = 453.592 37 grams 1 libra [Portugal, Spain] = 459 grams 1 livre [France] = 489.5 grams 1 libra [metric], pfund [Denmark, Germany], pond [Dutch], pound [metric], pund [Scandinavia] = 500 grams

It is not not correct that one pund of pure cotton weighs over one pound of pure gold because pounds is a measurement of wight. However, a measurement of mass, like grams, could make it seem like this because mass is often confused with weight. Weight would be different on another planet because the gravity is pulling you down more. However, mass, a measure of desity and inertia, would stay the same. A pound of cotton is heavier than a pound of gold as the pure cotton is weighed by avoirdupois pound. That consists of 16 ounces. whereas gold being a metal is weighed by troy pound. Its equivalent to 12 ounces.

There are 4 avoirdupois ounces in the avoirdupois quarter pound or 113.40 grams. There are 3 troy ounces in the troy quarter pound or 93.31 grams. This relates to the old question "What weighs more, a pound of gold or a pound of feathers?", a trick question in more ways than one.
