Last year I bought a 2016 Giant TCR Advanced 2. With the documentation in a small plastic bag came these two small pieces of metal with a spongy sticker on them.
One is slightly curved the other is flat.
What is their purpose?

2Hahaha. I was going to say they look like currency coins to me! ... until I realized you included the money just for size purposes.– RoboKarenMay 7, 2017 at 21:12

Totally unrelated to the question, but curious... Is that the British 50p piece?– FreeManMay 8, 2017 at 11:59

@FreeMan it's a 20p coin– Joe Lee-MoyetMay 8, 2017 at 13:02

Thank you, @yjo. I've often heard British F1 commentators describing a flat-spotted tire as being like a 50p piece so I thought this was it. I guess I'll just have to Google an image for myself to see the difference...– FreeManMay 8, 2017 at 13:28

These are to protect your frame from the support bolt on Shimano front derailleurs (I don't know if SRAM have the same).
You can see them on page page 7 of this manual.
