A troy ounce is not an ounce

The ordinary avoirdupois ounce is 28.349523125 grams and is what this page converts. Precious metals are weighed in troy ounces of 31.1034768 grams — ten per cent heavier — and a troy pound is twelve troy ounces rather than sixteen. A gold price "per ounce" always means the troy ounce.
