One would think that this is the old "What weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of lead?" question with a twist. Truth is, gold is usually weighed in Troy pounds which are different from the ordinary (avoirdupois) pounds that we know and love. One ordinary pound weighs the equivalent of 453.59 grams at sea level, and one Troy pound weighs the equivalent of 373.24 grams. Troy pounds are divided into 12 Troy ounces.
