What's the value of a kilo of saffron compared to a kilo of gold?
139803
1 kilogram = 32.151 troy ounce (standard gold measurement). Gold was at $548.50USD per troy ounce when I looked a few minutes ago. Therefore, 1 kg gold = $17,634.28. I found saffron (catagory I) for $36.95 per ounce. However, a standard ounce = .9 troy ounces. So it would be $40.65 per troy ounce. A kg of saffron, based on all that would cost $1306.74. Although considered one of the rarest spices in the world, it doesnt come close to the cost of gold. Somebody please check my math :)\n\nhttp://www.bulkfoods.com/search_results.asp?txtsearchParamCat=37&txtsearchParamType=ALL&txtsearchParamMan=ALL&txtsearchParamVen=ALL&txtFromSearch=fromSearch&txtsearchParamTxt=4462\n\nFollow this link for more information on saffron.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saffron

let us take each lobe as 3kgs(assumption) then they will have 24kgs of lobe. that is each get 8 kgs...so the person with  3 lobes will have 9kgs and other 15kgs. so 3 lobe will give 1 kg to the hunter and 5 lobe fellow will give 7kg to the hunter. so if each kg costs 1 bronze coin.they will divide 1:7. Are you clear?\n\nBut i missed all your other questions gal!!!!!!!! waht you have done...explaining this i missed all other questions.\n\nis the previous one right?\n\nBut i wont be the first to answer them.....

By law, gold filled has 1/20th by weight layer of gold permanently bonded over a core of base metal. \n\nGold plate has a few microns coating of gold over the base metal.\n\nGold filled is more expensive, and more enduring.

14kt gold is 58.33% pure, while 10kt gold is 41.67% pure gold, so if the price is based solely on the percent of pure gold, 14kt gold should be 40% more expensive.

the cash.\n\ngold is less than 600/oz.  at today's prices, 93 bills and you are already ahead.  do you think that there are more than 93 bills in a pound?\n\nBureau of Engraving and Printing's web site wrote: \nThe approximate weight of a currency note, regardless of denomination is (1) one gram. There are 454 grams in one (1) U.S. pound, therefore, there should be 454 notes in (1) one pound(Avoirdupois system).  \n\na pound of bills is worth just under 50K.  a pound of gold is worth less than 10K.\n\nwhen gold hits 2800/oz, start shopping for a buyer for your pound of money.

A volume of gold is divided into 24 parts. 24 karat is 24 of 24 parts pure gold. (at least 99.5%)\n18 k is 18 parts gold and 10 parts another metal, usually copper or silver. \n14 k is 14 parts gold/ 10 parts copper or silver. \n24 karat gold is too soft for jewelry so the alloys of 9 k to 18 k are primarily used.\nOften a piece is only plated with gold over a layer of jewler's brass or another less precious metal. The karat value of these items are restricted to the thin layer of plating only and are usually marked GP (gold plated), GF (gold filled) or RGP (rolled gold plated).

1000. Anything that has "kilo" in it means 1,000 of something.

It's "carats". 24k gold is pure. 18k gold is 18 parts of gold with 6 of some other metal, silver, or copper to alter the colour or make it wear harder and last longer, 9k is 9 parts of gold and 15 of other metals.

The real value of any currency is measured by checking it against the price of gold in that currency.  This is the only litmus test of real wealth that can be easily measured.  As of right now $1.00 is worth 1/545 of an ounce of gold.  \n\nAnother way to check was with something called the M3 index, which is just a count of all the US currency in circulation and in reserve in the world, but the Treasury Department just recently stopped reporting that number presumably so nobody would panic when the dollar gets wasted in the world economy soon.

Hacksaw, here's your answer...their WEIGHT is the same, but their DENSITY is quite different. A pound of gold has a higher density than a pound of feahers. when a pound of gold and a pound of feathers are placed into a tank of water...which has a density of 1, the gold wil sink faster than the feathers, due to the gold's higher density.

While 14k gold has more gold in it, 13k is uncommon and would have to be a custom alloy. because of this, it would cost more to have a piece of jewelery made from it. if a piece is marked  13k, look carefully, it could be 18k (which is common) with a messed up 8
