What is a Mesghal? Platinum weight, conversions and local use
Definition. The mesghal (4.6875 g) is the traditional Persian unit for gold, equal to 4.6875 g or 4.608 g depending on the local standard. Locally it is written مثقال. One mesghal equals 4.6875 grams, or 0.15071 troy ounces, which at today's platinum spot price works out to — PLN.
Where it is used. Iranian bazaar dealers quote 17-carat (705) gold per mesghal, and the mesghal rate is published alongside the coin (Bahar Azadi) price. The unit is the trading standard in Iran and parts of the Middle East.
Pricing conventions. Because Iranian jewellery is traditionally 18K sold at a 705 assay, converting a mesghal quote to a world price requires adjusting for purity as well as weight. Platinum has almost no traditional-unit retail market: it is quoted per ounce or per gram, and this conversion is mainly used for jewellery weighing and industrial stock.
Good to know. One mesghal equals 5 dirham in the old Persian system; the sooth (soot) subdivides it further for small stones.

Buying Platinum in Poland: local market, taxes and premiums
At the live price shown above per mesghal, the price you see here is the international XPT spot price converted into Polish Zloty. Physical buyers in Poland pay that reference plus a premium, and local trading is concentrated around Warsaw and the national online dealer network. Buyers there generally watch the NBP fixing converted from the LBMA price as the day's reference.
Taxes and duties. Silver, platinum and palladium carry 23% VAT, so silver premiums are notably higher than gold. Platinum is a much smaller market driven by autocatalyst and jewellery demand, so local availability is patchier and dealer spreads wider. That is why the shop price of platinum in PLN can sit noticeably above the spot value of the same mesghal of metal.
How people usually buy. The common routes in Poland are Mennica Polska, bank bullion offers, online dealers and physically backed ETCs. The products most often quoted locally include 1 oz Krugerrand and Philharmonic, 1 g to 100 g bars, Orzeł Bielik coins.
Local conventions. The Polish central bank has been a large buyer of gold reserves, which keeps retail interest and dealer coverage strong. Before you buy, compare the dealer's asking price per mesghal with the live platinum 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 PLN quote.
