FAQ
Are the results genuinely random?
Yes. The tool uses JavaScript's Math.random(), so heads and tails each have a 50 percent chance on every flip.
Can I skip the flip animation?
The animation is short, about 0.8 seconds, and clicking is disabled while it plays to prevent accidental double flips.
Are the statistics saved?
No. The counters only live in the current browser session and reset when you refresh the page or close the tab, so write down any totals you need to keep.
Can I change the artwork on the coin?
Not at the moment. The obverse is gold and the reverse is silver-gray, and the designs are not customizable.
