Specs source for Liberian gold?

I have been trying to authenticate some Liberian gold pieces. The coins in question are the 1964 William V.S. Tubman $20 (mintage 10,000 - .900 gold - .5397 AGW - 27mm - 18.65g overall) and the 1972 Sesquicentennial of Founding of Liberia $25 (proof mintage 3,000 - .900 gold - .6746 AGW - 30mm - 23.312g overall). I have checked the diameters and the weights, but what I don't have and can't seem to find is the thickness of these coins.

Might anyone have any reference material on these or know of any good online sources for this? I have been searching in vain for the numbers on these critters but to no avail. My world coin books don't provide the thicknesses and online searches have proved fruitless. Any help would be much appreciated as I would like to make sure that these coins are in fact what they are supposed to be.
