I love to challenge myself weekly to finding out things..Well this week i'm stumped. I've been searching for a week now and can not find the answer...
What are the exact measurements of an American Quarter(25 cent piece)? Diameter, circumference, wieght, depth.. Everything...
I would figure that there is a webpage or something out there but yet it is impossible to find...
Your thinking why don't I get a digital scale, and some measuring devices to do the work myself. Well the answer is , i'm poor and can't afford them. Also I don't know anyone with such tools around here... _________________
