Is that the thickness or the diameter?

Is .875 inches the correct diameter? I used my ruler

The diameter of this 2003 Illinois quarter is about .950"

The thickness is about .0650".

Measured using my dial caliper.

I think these machines do not go by dimesnions, they work by passing an electrical signal through the coin and testing something to determine what coin it is. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Machines test the size, weight, and electrical characteristics of the coin.
