Take a graduated cylinder and partly fill it with water. Read of the volume on the graduations: V1.
Gently insert the thumb tack and make sure there are no air bubbles on it. Read the new volume, V2.
The volume of the tack is V2 - V1, in the appropriate units.
The volume of a single tack is quite small so the margin of error in measurement is relatively large. Therefore, if you have a number of identical thumb tacks, you may be better of measuring the average of several tacks put into the measuring cylinder together.
