The first spring balance in Britain was made around 1770 by Richard Salter of Bilston, near Wolverhampton.
The spring balance was invented by Richard Salter, a British balance maker, in the late 18th century. His invention revolutionized the way weight measurements were taken by utilizing the elasticity of a spring to measure force.

Gold is not weighed by a spring balance because of its high value and the need for precise measurements. Spring balances are not as accurate as other methods like electronic scales when measuring the weight of precious metals like gold. To ensure accurate measurements, gold is usually weighed using more precise methods like electronic scales or balances.
You would use a scale to measure the mass of an object. Scales come in various types, such as balance scales, spring scales, or digital scales, and are commonly used in laboratories, kitchens, and industries to determine the weight of objects.
Some examples of spring scales include handheld luggage scales, kitchen scales, and fishing scales. These devices use the elasticity of a spring to measure the force exerted on them, providing a reading of the weight of an object.

Actually it is called a balance - scales are in music and on fish.
'There are two types of weighing scales; spring scale and balance scale. The spring scale makes use of spring to detect how much weight is pulled whereas a balance scale utilizes the horizontal bar to compare unknown weight to a standardized weight.' There are no other names for the balance scale, but there are differen't types of scales.

Balance scales have been around too long for there to be any record of who thought about it first. Most likely they were invented in several different places quite unrelated to each other.

It depends on the use to which it is being put. It might be fishing scales or a luggage scale, or a force meter.

SPRING BALANCEA spring balance apparatus is simply a spring fixed at one end with a hook to attach an object at the other. It works by Hooke's Law, which states that the force needed to extend a spring is proportional to the distance that spring is extended from its rest position. Therefore the scale markings on the spring balance are equally spaced.Spring balance can be used in physics and education as basic accelerometers, but its main uses are industrial, especially related to weighing heavy loads such as trucks, storage silos, and material carried on a conveyor belt. Spring balance are used when the accuracy afforded by other types of scales can be sacrificed for simplicity, cheapness, and robustness. A spring balance measures the weight of an object by opposing the force of gravity with the force of an extended spring. Spring balances measure weights in Gram as well as NewtonThe first spring balance in Britain was made around 1770 by Richard Salter of Bilston, near West Bromwich.[1] He and his nephews John & George founded the firm of George Salter & Co., still notable makers of scales and balances, who in 1838 patented the spring balance. They also applied the same spring balance principle to steam locomotive safety valves, replacing the earlier deadweight valves.[1]
