Depends on what your tolerances are. If you only need to be within a mm a coin is going to beat that by an order of magnitude.

We use a pack of cigarettes as a gauge for one of the jobs we do. Quick, (not so) cheap, and readily available. May have to standardize on a vape though in the near future.
