OTHER TRADE-WEIGHTS.

Formerly in Hindustán, the sér weighed 18 and in some places 22 dám. In the beginning of His Majesty's reign it was current at 28 and is now fixed at 30, each dám being 5 Táṇk. In the transactions in coral and camphor the dám was reckoned at 5½ tánk, but the price of these articles having fallen, it is valued at five only. The weights in ordinary use are ⅛, ¼, ½ of a sér; 1, 2, 5, 10 ser; ½, 1 man which consists of 40 ser.
