How to use it

  1. Press Flip. The coin lands on heads or tails with an even chance each time.
  2. Choose best of three or best of five when one toss feels too brutal.
  3. The tally underneath keeps count across the session, so you can see it really is roughly even.

Questions

Is it a fair 50/50?

Yes. Each toss is an independent draw with an even chance of either side. A real coin is very slightly biased by its faces, this one is not.

Why does it sometimes give five heads in a row?

Runs are normal in random sequences. Five heads in a row happens about once in every thirty-two sets of five tosses.
