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).

Unit Definition (decitonne)
The decitonne is a metric unit of mass or weight equal to 100 kilograms (approximately 220.4623 pounds). This unit is becoming common in international trade; it is the same as the Russian centner, the German doppelzentner, and the French metric quintal.
