1 troy pound = 12 troy ounces = 373 grams
1 avoirdupois pound = 453 grams = 14.566 troy ounces
Avoirdupois weights
Here in the USA we often use the avoirdupois ounce for everyday weighing. Every time you step on the scale at home, or weight food found in the grocery, you use the avoirdupois ounce weight system. There are 16 avoirdupois ounces in a pound.
1 avoirdupois ounce = 437.5 grains, or 28.35 grams. 1 avoirdupois pound contains 16 (avoirdupois) ounces. This makes an Avoirdupois pound equal to about 453.6 grams, or the equivalent of 14.583 "troy ounces".
So what do you get when you buy an ounce ?
The troy ounce is heavier than the typical grocery store (avoirdupois) ounce used in the USA. When you purchase a 1 ounce silver or gold coin, you are receiving a "troy" ounce. If you put that same 1 troy oz. coin on a grocery store scale you will find that it weighs about 10% more than the food (avoirdupois) ounce you are familiar with. It will weigh about 1.1 avoirdupois ounces. A troy ounce is equivalent to about 31.1 grams.
Separately, the troy weight system has it's own definition of a "troy" pound. A "troy pound" contains 12 troy ounces or 373.24 grams (which is over 13 avoirdupois ounces).
Troy weights
One troy ounce = 480 grains, or 31.10 grams.
There are also 20 pennyweights to a troy ounce.
A troy pound contains 12 troy ounces (over 13 avoirdupois ounces) and is equivalent to 373.24 grams. 32.15 troy ounces = 1 kilogram.
Consequently, a grocery store pound which weighs 16 avoirdupois ounces (or 453.59 grams) will contain about 14.58 troy ounces.
Perhaps an easy way to compare Troy ounces versus avoirdupois ounces is to look at how they weigh using the metric system
But I crunched a few numbers and found:
1 troy pound = 12 troy ounces = 373 grams
1 avoirdupois pound = 453 grams = 14.566 troy ounces
Hope that helps.

someone got a pretty good buy on those walkers. If I come across a deal and it's not really somethg I want to put back, I pass the deal along.
Will be posting more stuff next week. Time to go watch the Steelers kick some blackbird butt!
