collection of Troy cup weights. 

 

These are sometimes called bucket weights.

 Troy ounce is a traditional unit of gold weight. Troy weight is a system of units of mass customarily used for precious metals and gemstones. There are 12 troy ounces per troy pound, (373.24 g) rather than the 16 ounces per pound (453.59 g) found in the more common avoirdupois system.

Very few cup weights are interchangeable from one set to another. Unless these are made by the same maker in the same time period. The largest weight in the set will have a groove around the outside of the cup. In a true set all the numbers will be in a line and all the oz  letters will be in their own line. They should all fit nicely together.

Largest  cup weight 128 troy oz.                 Total weight 256 Troy oz

128 -64 -32 -16 -8 -4 -2 -1 –  ½ – ¼  – ¼

Very interested in any information or buying any sets with a different outer weight (must have circles around the largest cup) than what I have listed. This list is at the bottom of my collection page.
