Commerce-Weight. The Wiener Zentner contains 5 Stein to 20 Pfunde, or 100 Pfunde. The {Wiener} Pfund, which is divided in half and quarter-Pfunde, contains 32 Lothe, each about 4 Quentchen or Quinteln. The Bohemian Zentner contains 120 Pfunde, which likewise each has 32 Lothe, the Loth is divided to 4 Quentchen; 100 Wiener Pfunde are equal to 108.875 Bohemian Pfunde. The {Commercial} Wiener Pfund contains 11,655 Holland Assen, the Bohemian 10,697.

The Apothecary Pfund has 12 Unzen at 8 Drachme each; the Drachme 3 Skrupeln, the Skrupel about 20 Gran. 12 Unzen contains 8,741 Holland Assen. Thus the Apothecary Pfund is exactly 75% the Commercial-Weight Wiener Pfund, an Unze likewise 2 Lothe and the Drachma 1 Quentchen.
