What is a Don? Palladium weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The don (3.75 g) is the Korean unit for gold, used for every traditional gift item. Locally it is written 돈. One don equals 3.75 grams, or 0.12057 troy ounces, which at today's palladium spot price works out to — RUB.
Where it is used. First-birthday (dol) gold rings are classically one don, and jewellery shops in Jongno quote buy and sell rates per don daily. The unit is the trading standard in South Korea.
Pricing conventions. Korean shops add a workmanship charge on top of the metal value and buy back at a discount, so the round-trip cost on a one-don ring can be significant relative to its metal content. 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. Ten don make one nyang (37.5 g), the Korean equivalent of the tael.

Buying Palladium in Russia: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per don, the price you see here is the international XPD 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. Silver, platinum and palladium bars are also sold through banks, with Russia a major palladium producer. 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 RUB can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same don 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 don 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 RUB quote.
