What are these shims/"gaskets" used for

Found these in a bunch of parts I bought, I remember using rings to lower compression when I worked at the dealer, do engine rebuilders still use these?

They look exactly like type 4 head gaskets to me .What is the diameter of the ring?

Thanks, definitely not T4. Is there any market for them or just junk?
