Bescon Professional Precision Dice Round Corner 5/8" (16mm) with Random Serial Number, Precision Cut Dice 16MM Gem Blue, 2pcs Set

Proper precision dice! Bought 5 sets, and we are happy. Just like our older precision dice.

This review is for both the red and green 16 mm Bescon precision dice. Despite what people are "expertly mouthing off" all over the Internet about the (very small) embossed serial number on the #6 side of these dice "destroying" their precision, that is NOT borne out by experiments. Repeat series of 600 rolls on a Wycliffe Brothers board revealed absolutely NO difference between the as-fabricated precision dice (bought from two different backgammon supplies vendors) and the embossed precision dice from Bescon. As a matter of fact, the quality of the board matters MUCH MORE for how the dice will roll than embossing vs. no embossing. (The metrics I used for determining how good the dice were was the absolute value of the sum of positive or negative percent deviations of statistical frequencies from theoretical probability for all faces during single die rolls using one of the cups are provided with each board. My old and tattered 21" tournament board with cork surface never yielded sum of deviations less then 15% even after 500 or 600 rolls, while the brand-new Wycliffe Brothers board had a few series where the sum of deviations from probability was as low as eye-popping 6% - 7% after 500-600 rolls.)These dice are sold at the best available price on the Internet, so it's a no-brainer recommendation: BUY!

These dice are always great. Have about 12 pairs

Good dice. But they run a tiny bit smaller than what I’m used to for my backgammon and the are very light. But they are great dice.

Let me start off by saying the dice are beautifully crafted. They look as they are advertised in the photos, however be mindful of the size of the dice. The serial numbers give the impression that they are the same size as vegas dice. They even come up when you search “vegas dice” but they are substantially smaller. They’re about the size of standard board game dice. Truthfully the price point also lead me to believe they are larger dice especially since they’re just standard D6s. Other than that I have no complaints. I would also recommend giving them a good once over when you receive them, mine had a bunch of small scratches all over them which are easily seen because the dice are crystal clear. IDK if it they came from the vendor that way or got damaged in transit but worth the once over when you get em.

These yellow dice are too light colored which leads to people misread them (the pips from opposing sides shine through to the top face). Look for the golden amber color precision dice and you'll be glad; they're almost yellow but dark enough to read easily and they go well with butterscotch Bakelite.
