It would be difficult to measure the depth of the stamping...because the metal around the stamp is displaced; raised slightly; making accurate measurement difficult...

One point: We all think in thousandths...Hundredths and even tenths are not common terms in the manufacturing/machine tools world...

For example...if you have a sheet of lined notebook paper, like schoolchildren use...it's ~.004" thick (four thousandths)...You'll never hear anyone say "About half a hundredth"...
