Unit Definition (obolus [Ancient Rome])
The obolus [Ancient Rome] is a historic unit of weight or mass. The obol is a very small weight that originated as the weight of a tiny Greek coin. In Rome, the obolus was equal to 1/48 Roman ounce (uncia) or about 0.57 gram.

Unit Definition (pfund [Denmark, Germany])
The pfund is a traditional German weight unit corresponding to the English pound. The pfund is equal to 16 unze or 32 lot. Traditionally the pfund varied in size from market to market, and the various German states adopted different standards, ranging from something close to the English pound (454 grams) to the Viennese pfund at about 1.2 pounds (560 grams). When Germany was unified in the late nineteenth century, the pfund was redefined as a metric unit equal to exactly 500 grams (about 1.102 31 pound).
