Unit Definition (mina [Hebrew])
The mina is a historic unit of weight, originating in Babylonia and used throughout the eastern Mediterranean. The mina is roughly comparable to the pound, but over the centuries it varied quite a bit. In Babylonian times it was a large unit, roughly 2 pounds, almost as much as a kilogram. The Hebrew mina, frequently mentioned in the Bible, is estimated at 499 grams (1.10 pounds). The Greek mina was equal to 100 drachmai or 431 grams (0.95 pound). In Biblical times the mina was equal to 60 shekels, and there were 60 minas in a talent.

Unit Definition (baht [Thailand])
The baht [Thailand] is a traditional weight unit in Thailand, now equal to exactly 15 grams or 1/40 catty (0.5291 ounce). The baht, originally the weight of a silver coin of the same name, is used to measure the weight of precious metals. The unit is pronounced bot.
