Weight of Diamonds



   What is the measure used to weigh diamonds?

Answer: Carat. Carat is the standard legal weight for the sale of Diamonds, precious stones and precious metals, since 1878.
              A Carat originally weighed 3-1 /3 grains but now it weight 3-1 /5 grains. 150 Carats make the Troy ounce of 480 grains.
