Pennyweight: The pennyweight (abbreviated as dwt) is a unit of mass commonly used in the jewelry industry to measure the weight of precious metals, particularly gold and silver. One pennyweight is equal to 24 grains or approximately 1.555 grams.
In the New Testament and other Greek texts from antiquity, the talent was also a unit of weight and currency.
The Greek talent was typically lighter than the Hebrew talent, with a common weight of about 57 pounds (26 kilograms) or less.
In the parable of the talents in the New Testament (Matthew 25:14-30), talents were used as a representation of value and investment.
