The nautical mile or sea mile (1 Seemeile = 1852 m).
The picul is an old Chinese and Malay measure (1 Picul = 60.478 982 kg).
The Réaumur temperature scale was a scale established in 1730 by the French naturalist René-Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur. Zero degrees was set at the freezing point of water and 80 degrees at the boiling point of water at normal atmospheric pressure. To convert degrees Réaumur to degrees Celcius, simply multiply by 1.25.
Currency units used where not standarized in Germany at that time. A number of highly confusing systems where in use. Most common where the Thaler and Gulden systems, with local variations in each German state.
| 1 Species Thaler | = 2 Gulden | ||
| 1 Reichsthaler (Rthlr.) | = 90 Kreutzer | = 30 neugroschen (ngr.) | = 360 Pfennige |
| 1 Gulden (fl.) | = 60 Kreutzer | = 240 Pfennige | |
| 1 Kreutzer (kr.) | = 4 Pfennige | ||
| 1 Pfennig (dl.) | = 2 Heller | ||
In 1876, this system was replaced by the Mark system, where one Mark was divided into 100 Pfennige. One Thaler was set equivalent to three Mark. In Purchasing Power Parity terms, a Reichsthaler in 1869 is equivalent to roughly € 24 today.
