This is most likely the livre actuelle, also called the livre de Paris or livre de poids de marc, equal to about 0.4895 kilograms.

In cases in which the source provides an apparently rounded number (e.g. 23,000 lbs) and this produces a deceptively accurate conversion (e.g. 11,258 kg), the word "about" is included.
