G / Grain Units Definition
Gram
The gram (g) is also a unit of weight measurement in the International System of Units (SI). A gram is the basic unit that measures mass. It is often used for larger weights, such as ingredients in recipes, packages, and other everyday items.
Grain
The grain is an ancient unit of measurement, either of mass or of length (Gn). It converts a dry unit to wet.The addition of a few grains in addition to the legal weight of a (coin) allowed a coin exposed to wear to retain its legal weight longer; this is what is called the stumbling which allows the balance to be moved1.Originally, this grain could have been a common grain such as a grain of barley, wheat or rye, or a smaller grain2.
