Heh, I was just playing with a quarter the other day and, with some practice, I was able to learn how to get the rotation and timing right so it was heads nearly every time. With practice, I'm sure someone could purposely get heads 76+ times in a row, but I imagine that wasn't the point of the article since I only skimmed it.
- sejje 13y agoI've heard the traditional (older style) American quarter is slightly biased to tails, as the head makes the coin's weight distribution slightly lopsided.

- ulisesrmzroche 13y agoI was just about to come in and say that. I just flipped it 100 times heads for fun. I used to do more when I was a kid. I've been killin time with this trick since elementary when someone taught it to me, can't remember who.
