Flip a Coin Online

Choose one of the eight coins above, then press Flip coin to get heads or tails. The design changes the illustration; each page uses the same two possible results. You can turn off the animation for an immediate answer or switch off the sound.

The flipper counts heads and tails and shows what share of your flips each side has received. Press Reset to clear the count before a new round.

Which design should you choose?

Pick the US Quarter, British Pound, Euro, Canadian Loonie, or Australian Dollar for a familiar currency theme. The Eesti Kroon recalls Estonia's former currency. Pirate Doubloon and CS2 Coin are playful designs for stories and games.

All eight pages keep their own text about the chosen coin. The illustrated coins are for this tool and are not meant to identify or value a physical coin.

How to Use a Coin Toss

A coin toss is useful when two options are both fine and you just need a way to pick one. Decide what heads and tails mean before you flip. Then open any design above and press Flip coin. You can keep flipping for a game or reset the count for a new round.

The illustrated designs give the pages different themes. They do not make one side a better choice. Pick the design you like and use the same simple rule.

Try a Probability Exercise

Choose a coin page and make ten flips. Write down the results, then compare your list with the counters and percentages. Try another ten after pressing Reset. Small groups of flips often show uneven results, which makes them useful for talking about chance.

For a result with more than two possible outcomes, try the Dice Roller or Random Number Generator.
