Medium comma

A medium comma is a comma whose size is approximately between 30 and 100 cents. These commas are easily perceptible.

For commas over 100 cents, see Large comma; for commas under 30 cents, see Small comma; for such under 3.5 cents see Unnoticeable comma.

Except for the 3-limit commas, the color name refers to both the comma and the temperament created when it is tempered out.
