What is a Momme? Gold weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The momme (3.75 g) is the traditional Japanese unit of mass, best known for pearls but also used for precious metals. Locally it is written 匁. One momme equals 3.75 grams, or 0.12057 troy ounces, which at today's gold spot price works out to — EUR.
Where it is used. Japanese jewellers and pearl dealers quote per momme, and it is the unit behind many antique Japanese silver weights. The unit is the trading standard in Japan.
Pricing conventions. Japanese bullion dealers publish tax-inclusive yen prices per gram, so a momme quote is usually a conversion rather than the headline rate. Gold is the metal most often traded in these traditional units, because jewellery and savings demand kept the old weights alive long after industry went metric.
Good to know. One momme equals one tenth of a Taiwanese tael and matches the Korean don exactly.

Buying Gold in European Union: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per momme, the price you see here is the international XAU spot price converted into Euro. Physical buyers in European Union pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Frankfurt, Vienna and the large euro-area online dealers. Buyers there generally watch the LBMA price converted at the ECB reference rate as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. Investment gold is VAT-exempt across the EU under the special investment-gold scheme (coins and bars of at least 995 fineness). Gold is the deepest of the four precious metals markets, so local retail spreads are usually the tightest and buy-back is easiest. That is why the shop price of gold in EUR can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same momme of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in European Union are bank branches in Germany and Austria, Degussa/Pro Aurum style dealers, online dealers with insured shipping and physically backed ETCs. The products most often quoted locally include 1 oz Vienna Philharmonic, Krugerrand, 100 g bars, CombiBars.
Local conventions. Bars are sold in metric weights (1 g to 1 kg) and jewellery is hallmarked in fineness (585, 750) rather than karats. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per momme with the live gold price above, and check the buy-back spread the same dealer offers — that round-trip cost matters more than a small difference in the headline EUR quote.
