One dollar of gold is 3.75 grams.
In foreign countries, we usually do transactions in g.
During the Qin Dynasty in China, I made and used Yeopjeon for the first time
At that time, one Yeopjeon weighed "1 cat (about 37.5g)
One tenth of it is called "jeon" (about 3.75g)
At this time, the word "jeon" was also called "don," because the Chinese character "jeon" is "donjeon."
So, "1jeon" is the same as "1don."
And when our country starts to make a full-scale casting of money,
It is said that the lowest unit of money was "1 won (1 money).
Geonwonjungbo, the first casting currency of the Goryeo Dynasty - The material is iron!
(In fact, there is a theory that money was used before the Goryeo Dynasty.)
It was during the Goryeo Dynasty that full-fledged records and relics began to appear.)
So what?
After all, the unit of money is the unit of money.
There are no gold coins among the raw materials of the currencies from our country.
But why does our country use the unit of money to count gold?
The history of using gold as money and valuables is very long
It's been in use since the Mesopotamian civilization and the Egyptian period, 3,000 years ago.C.E
Since then, it has spread to Europe, the Middle East, and Asia
We humans have treated gold with care for thousands of years That's what I mean.
Not just in Asia, but in the world, gold is still an important substance.
I have not been able to find out why Korea uses 'money' as a unit of counting gold
It's a combination of "money" and "gold" that I've long cherished
I think we started using 'money' as a unit of counting gold in Korea.

The weight units of gold, silver, and drugs are about 31.1035 grams.
The reason for setting the gold weight unit to ounces is that the standard gold price is set by the London Gold Market Association (LBMA) in the United Kingdom, where the standard price is expressed in US dollars per trice of gold.
