yes Well, you could, but you could also weigh (note - not "weight") yourself in ounces, too, but it would be a bit impractical from an arithmetic standpoint.
U.S. nickels weigh 5.00 grams so that would be a better unit than a kilogram - the same mass in kg would be 0.005 kilos.

∙ 8y agoAny unit of weight can be used, but measuring a nickel in kilograms would result an inconveniently small number. A kilogram is the mass of a liter of water, a quantity that's much larger than a nickel.
The next-smallest commonly used unit is the gram, and that produces a much simpler value. In fact, US nickels are specified to weigh exactly 5.0 grams which is far easier to work with than 0.005 kilos.
