Why, a pound of nails, of course. Pound being money... the amount of nails you can buy with a pound would weigh more than the amount of feathers you can buy with a pound...

It depends on what the nails are made of. If they are made of anything but gold, it's the same. If it's gold, the feathers weigh more, because gold is measured on a different scale, making it only about twelve ounces.

They are the same weight unless the pound of nails is located on the moon...
