Yes you are quite right a Tola is as you say more than ten grams. The trade was for a full Tola of gold but I couldn't remember the exact weight so I put a rough amount( i should have looked it up). In that particular valley they know exactly the weight of a Tola as it is the unit of measurement that the local product is sold in.....tourists only ever get a 10 gram "Tola" though, sometimes less...
Two wonderful beads you have show, beautiful colours!
