  • Of, or relating to, troy weight, Of or expressed in troy weight, noun_ the weight which gold and silver, jewels, and the like, are weighed. It was so named from Troyes, in France, where it was first adopted in Europe. The troy ounce is supposed to have been brought from Cairo during the crusades.
