You can also say biggest diameter and still be correct. Unless pi exists a variable where you live.

I've got some big bronze medals but nothing in Al.
I'll see what I have in coinage.

I couldn't remember the equation for the circumference. Looked it up. If you have the radius it is 2πr.

This one is my best--a Chinese language religious (Christian) token, but I would be glad to have someone provide an exact translation as my google translate isn't giving more than just phrases. The circumference is 122.52 mm.

Or you expand the definition of circumference to include perimeter of non-round pieces :

39mm maximum diameter:

But round would be better. Also 39mm diameter (but a 122.522mm circumference this time):

The octagonal token was a bit of a joke, but the round one I posted is also 39mm in diameter and has the greatest "circumference" of the two.

However, Spence posted a token that also seems to be 39mm in diameter (122.52mm circumference) before me, so I believe he is the true winner.

If he does not post something by tomorrow evening, I will come up with something.

Ok sweet. Our next challenge is to post coins/tokens featuring Elvis (his birthday was a couple days ago). You get 1 point each for:

1. likeness of his face
2. first name
3. last name
4. the word Graceland
5. likeness of his old house

Here is one example:
