<p>[QUOTE="Neal, post: 3694088, member: 43872"]It's hard to see diameter accurately in that picture, although it does look to me slightly smaller than the other two. Could you show a picture of the three coins standing together edgewise on a flat surface? (III) Put the one in question in the center. I suspect that the spooned coin, even slightly spooned, will show its slightly smaller diameter, which should show up if they stand straight up together. With no more spooning than you have there, there won't be a huge difference. You might also put them, on edge and face to face, between hard flat surfaces and should observe that the odd one will roll out while the normal ones won't, even if the difference in diameter is not obvious to the eye. Of course, it would be great if you had a really accurate micrometer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
