Edward I (1272–1307) broke the link between a coin's value and its weight when he debased the English coinage by introducing a groat (four pence) which weighed of 89 grains rather than the expected 96 grains.

The Domesday Book used the hide, an economic unit of measure. In other references
Metals in medicine with other metals already present in protein active sites, while other drugs can use metals to interact with amino acids with the highest reduction potential. Examples of Metals used in treatment include: Metals in medicine Metals in medicine are used in organic systems for diagnostic and treatment purposes. Inorganic elements are also essential for organic life as cofactors in enzymes called metalloproteins. When metals are scarce or high quantities, equilibrium is set out of balance and must be returned to its natural state via interventional and natural methods. Metals can be toxic in high quantities.
