About these units
Mina (Biblical Greek) (mina (G))
The Greek mina weighed roughly 430 grams, depending on region. As with the Hebrew mina, it served as the intermediate mass unit within the Greek system. Minas appear frequently in classical literature for describing wages, commodity prices, and financial penalties. Their role in ancient bookkeeping showcases the organization of Greek economic life. A mina was traditionally divided into 100 drachmae, linking weight with monetary valuation.
Grain (gr)
The grain, defined as exactly 64.79891 milligrams, is one of the oldest units of mass still in limited use today. Derived from the weight of average cereal grains such as barley or wheat, it became a universal tiny unit used across Europe for coins, medicine, and gunpowder. The grain persists in firearms and ammunition manufacturing because bullet weights are still listed in grains (e.g., a "150-grain bullet"). Reloaders and ballistic engineers rely on the grain as a fine unit suitable for measuring powder charges and projectile masses. It is also used in traditional gold and silver transactions, linking it to the troy system. The grain's longevity highlights how ancient agrarian measures can remain embedded in modern technological practices.
