I just happen to have one (side) of those. I just take pictures of the important side, usually the date. Saves space in my 'puter. :)

Nice coin Spruett. Quote:
how can a coin with 4 sides have a diameter? I have wondered about diameters on non round coins. Do they measure the widest part or the narrowest part. Quote:
Aussie for a golf club? . And there I was think it was only Americans that didn't know how to spell. Quote:

Do they measure the widest part or the narrowest part. I can tell you that the previous coin measures 20mm side-to-side and 24mm corner-to-corner, so I guess they use the smallest measurement.

 I've had dodecagons and the like that Numista lists the diameter but they won't fit a coin capsule for that size so guess they take the distance between flat faces. Not sure how consistent it is. Should measure a UK 50p later on and compare to Numista.
