Gold & Silver Weight Converter

From the editors — what to know before you start

You're sitting with your mother going through your late grandmother's gold inventory written in beautiful Urdu in an old register: "چار تولہ سات ماشہ تین رتی" — four tola, seven masha, three ratti. Meanwhile the insurance company wants it in grams. Or you're reading international gold news quoting per troy ounce and trying to translate it into the per-tola rate your local Sarafa Bazar uses. Or you bought a 1 kg gold bar from a Swiss refinery and need to know how many tolas that actually is. This converter handles every translation between the South Asian system (tola, masha, ratti), the international metric system (grams, kilograms), and the global bullion standard (troy ounce). All conversions route through grams internally with the precise factors: 1 tola = 11.6638 g exactly, 1 troy ounce = 31.1035 g exactly, 1 tola = 12 masha = 96 ratti. No rounding shortcuts, no "approximately 12 grams" laziness — the precise legal standard used by every hallmark and proper invoice in Pakistan. Especially useful when you're bridging generations and conventions: nani thinks in tola, your jeweller writes grams on the receipt, the COMEX quote is in troy ounces, and they all need to agree. Bookmark this — you'll use it more often than you'd expect once gold and silver become part of your financial vocabulary.
