It is about the thickness of a nickel and is very symmetric and uniform in shape and thickness to the point of being perfectly shaped. It isn't totally smooth and has some small pits on edges and face that are uniform also. A picture from each side. Is it anything?? Give me a fish, I will eat for a day. Teach me to fish, I will eat for a lifetime
