What is a Troy Ounce? Gold weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The troy ounce (31.1035 g) is the settlement unit of the London and COMEX markets, so it is the number every other quote is derived from. One troy ounce equals 31.1035 grams, or 1.00000 troy ounces, which at today's gold spot price works out to — RUB.
Where it is used. Bullion bars and coins are struck in 1 oz, 10 oz and 100 oz sizes, and dealer spreads are quoted as a premium over the ounce spot price. The unit is the trading standard in global wholesale markets.
Pricing conventions. Because the ounce is the contract unit, it carries the tightest spread of any weight: retail premiums on a 1 oz coin typically run a few percent, while a 400 oz good-delivery bar trades near spot. 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. The troy ounce is heavier than the everyday avoirdupois ounce (28.35 g) — a mix-up of roughly 10% that still catches out first-time buyers.

Buying Gold in Russia: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per troy ounce, the price you see here is the international XAU spot price converted into Russian Ruble. Physical buyers in Russia pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Moscow, through bank bullion desks. Buyers there generally watch the Central Bank of Russia daily metal price in rubles per gram as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. VAT on retail investment gold bars was removed, making physical bars competitive with unallocated metal accounts. 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 RUB can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same troy ounce of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in Russia are Sberbank and VTB bullion desks, unallocated metal accounts (OMS), coin programmes and refiners. The products most often quoted locally include Georgy Pobedonosets coins, 100 g and 1 kg bars, palladium bars.
Local conventions. Bank unallocated metal accounts are a long-standing local savings format, quoted in rubles per gram. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per troy ounce 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 RUB quote.
