    Had the set in the common sterling silver. No reason to doubt that these are platinum, though I wonder if he weighed them all or just a couple and extrapolated.

    These are tiny, tiny, tiny! Even the scope used to view them is tiny. Be aware of this fact prior to bidding or buying.

    IIRC, they are 10 mm. A Lincoln cent is 19.1 mm.
