Solution

The correct option is B millimetre
The appropriate unit for measuring the thickness of a coin is millimetre.

If we measure its thickness in meters or centimeters, magnitude of the measurement will be very small and inconvenient.

If we measure its thickness in pico, magnitude of the measurement will be very large and again, it will be inconvenient.
