I guess it depends on where you're at? Those look like ounces not pounds, honestly not that much value, especially if you're in a place where it's legal.
Maybe quarter pounds. Still tens of thousands of dollars in a legal state.
Usually (at least in Britain) they'd be packaged into 9 ounce bags (otherwise known as a 9 bar) for distribution to dealers. It's sold by the kg on the international market and ounces on the British market and 9 Oz is approximately 250g so it's a handy way to convert from metric to imperial when selling to dealers.
Thats pretty interesting, does Britain use ounces generally? I thought that was a US thing.
The drug trade is American, they also use pints for beer though
