You got it. Good deciphering. Here is my search. Very basic, the 1 that fits the Q's is the Miscellaneous tokens one at the bottom. I don't know what it's made of or mintage or year. That one did it's job. You can have your own. https://www.colonialacres.com/produ...41-zd823.htmhttps://en.numista.com/catalogue/in...t=&g=&se=&d=Our 1st crypto currency "coin". That was a Bit of fun.  I got these calipers "dumpster diving". The Inspection department was cleaning house, all the staff got there pick before it was literally thrown out. These were/are going to be a wall hanger. Top quality name metric true vernier scale inside and outside calipers. These things are 2.5 feet long and brand new in the box. They were worth a fortune back then, don't know about it now. BONUS points to anyone who can tell me how far apart those jaws are.   Good work team, and good guess keith.

Nice calipers. I really didn't even look at Numista. I sure wasn't going N# by N#. But I know, Bit coin is valued world wide.

Well done Keith. Interesting round Loonie. Great pick up on the vernier. Mitutoyo are the best. The jaws are at 5.5mm.

Quote: Mitutoyo are the best. The jaws are at 5.5mm. I figured you'd be able to read it. It is accurate to 2 decimal places, so 5.50 is how it's read. Mitutoyo is the best no doubt about it. Oz, I'm going to stick to "normal" coins for a while.
