In Regensburg the measure was applied to salt. In Bavaria, for example, it was used as a number and a weight. 1 schilling salt = 40 'slices' (Salzscheiben) [a] 8 schillings = 1 Pfund ("pound") of salt; In Austria a schilling corresponded to the number 30 [1] and in Silesia and Lusatia, the number 12.
This is a list of container ships with a capacity larger than 20,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU).
