Agito

Agito , also Giro , was a gold and silver weight in Pegu , which corresponds to an administrative unit in today's Thailand .

1 agito = 2 abucchi = 25 ticals = 1280 moyons = 5000 toques

The tical measure was 15 ⅜ grams in Pegu and Siam (today: national territory of Thailand, Cambodia , Laos and parts of Malaysia , Myanmar and Vietnam ) 14 3/5 grams. That made the measure of agito different.

1 agito = ¾ pound (Prussian) = 392 ⅞ grams
2 agitos = ½ biza
