Strange - I thought had included that data.

Anyhow,

717 is 133 mm X 90 mm X 57 mm
718 is 125 mm X 95 mm X 52 mm
726 is 135 mm X 130 mm X 60 mm
727 is 165 mm X 140 mm X 88 ,,

What is cause of the strange characters in Trepca locality names. Software with symbols?

Thanks. Sizes added. Yes, odd characters are the result of the inability of the software to translate some foreign language symbols.
