Why International Bars Use Grams vs. Pakistani Tolas
Global gold refineries (such as PAMP Suisse, Valcambi, and Emirates Gold) mint bullion using the international metric system (10g, 50g, 100g, 1kg). When imported into Pakistan, domestic Sarafa dealers convert these metric bars into tolas using the 11.6638 ratio for local pricing and trade.
