  5. I dropped the coin and watched it spiral out of view. Twirling in the resistance of the air, a play of masses – one a tiny ball of alloy, valued by man, the other a massive ball of elements, existing whether man views it or not. Impact. Coin destroyed, planet unphased.

    “Why?”

    He grinned. “You pick either heads or tails, and I flip the coin. If-“

    “And if I lose?”

    “Then I get you.”

  13. To coin an old phrase – we are two sides of the same coin. Me and all of you out there. The them’s & those, the ones who are not me, but of me, in some cosmic sense of the word. We all want the same things but do everything we can not to attain them. Distracted by our separation, not bonded by it. Wouldn’t it be grand if we combined our abilities to reach our goals and then shared the rewards?

  17. The gambler flipped her last coin onto the table.

    “Are you sure about this?” the casino worker asked. “You know the odds of winning anything now are next to none.”

    “I’m feeling lucky,” she replied with a wink.

    The spinner was spun, the dice were thrown, and the cards dealt. And in the end, her luck held out. She walked out the casino doors with two bags full of cash.

  19. He flipped the coin in his hand.
    “Tails you kiss me,” he said, and grinned.
    “What’s heads?” she demanded.
    “I kiss you.” He replied quickly, before throwing the coin up into the air. It landed on the ground, tails up.
    His smile was quick, potent and wicked. “Well, look at that. Looks like you owe me, Daze.”

  28. I already wrote about this word. That’s kind of annoying because I wanted to write about another word. What else is there to say about a coin. Not much really. Just that they’re shiny, I guess. Unless, of course, the coin you have is old, in which case it probably is not very shiny and maybe even has some sort of green tint to it.

  29. Monetary value of a coin varies between culture to culture and material to material. People find more value in coins according to their design as well. The heavier the coin, the more material it has. Coins are harder to carry than paper money, but are more durable.
