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.
