What is a Pennyweight? Palladium weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The pennyweight (1.55517 g, one twentieth of a troy ounce) is the unit American jewellers and scrap buyers still quote in. One pennyweight equals 1.55517 grams, or 0.05000 troy ounces, which at today's palladium spot price works out to — CNY.
Where it is used. Repair work, casting weights and scrap gold offers in the US are almost always priced per pennyweight rather than per gram. The unit is the trading standard in United States jewellery trade.
Pricing conventions. A scrap buyer quoting per dwt is quoting on a unit roughly 1.5 times a gram, so always convert before comparing with an online per-gram offer. Palladium is almost entirely an industrial metal, so a retail quote in this unit is a conversion from the ounce price rather than a rate you will see posted in a shop.
Good to know. The name survives from the medieval English penny, which literally weighed one pennyweight of silver.

Buying Palladium in China: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per pennyweight, the price you see here is the international XPD spot price converted into Chinese Yuan. Physical buyers in China pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Shanghai, through the Shanghai Gold Exchange. Buyers there generally watch the Shanghai Gold Benchmark Price in yuan per gram as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. Silver, platinum and palladium are taxed as ordinary goods, with platinum popular for bridal jewellery. Palladium is dominated by industrial buyers, so retail coins and bars are scarce and premiums move sharply with supply news. That is why the shop price of palladium in CNY can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same pennyweight of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in China are Shanghai Gold Exchange members, bank gold accumulation plans, Chow Tai Fook and other chains and online platforms. The products most often quoted locally include 50 g and 100 g bars, Panda coins, 999 gold jewellery, SGE Au99.99 contracts.
Local conventions. Mainland buyers price gold per gram and by the metric tael (50 g); the SGE benchmark can trade at a premium or discount to London. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per pennyweight with the live palladium 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 CNY quote.
