About Baht (weight)
The baht (บาท) as a unit of mass equals 15.244 grams and is the traditional gold weight standard of Thailand. While the baht is now primarily known as Thailand's currency, its weight meaning remains very much live: Thai gold jewellery is universally sold and priced by the baht weight. A '1 baht gold chain' in a Thai jewellery shop contains one baht (15.244 g) of gold alloy. Gold shops (ร้านทอง) throughout Thailand, and in Thai communities worldwide, post daily buying and selling prices per baht of gold.
About Quarters
A quarter (qr) in the avoirdupois system equals 28 pounds or one quarter of a hundredweight - approximately 12.70 kg. Historically, quarters were used in British trade for measuring grain, wool, and other bulk commodities. The British quarter of grain (28 lb) was the standard purchase quantity at markets and mills throughout medieval and early modern England. In the US, the term 'quarter' sometimes refers to a quarter of a short hundredweight (25 lb) rather than the British 28 lb.
