This activity was explored in an online course I am taking. First, thanks you for it. From it, I learned about scratch, which is fantastic (and translatable) and from your scripts for this activity I understood many, many of the concepts of this language!
Second, my class wanted more coins so I extended your activity here: http://www.mathcasts.org/mtwiki/Activity/CoinToss2
I hope you think it adequately credited, but if not please say so and I will change it.
Download "Coin flip"one sprite and 2 scripts of and open it in Scratch
Project Notes
This one's pretty simple (it wasn't too hard to animate), just click the coin and it will come up as either heads or tails. Just use it for whatever you want.
UPDATE: This took me WAY too long to get at, but I fixed the flickering glitch (thinking about the scripts now and why I decided to let it through, it makes me wonder what I was thinking)

i got heads 4 times in a row

whoever keeps saying it wont give them tails, is just wrong - its random, so you DO have a chance of getting a certain one 15 times or whatever!

Nice, but can you buy anything with it? I don't think it's going to replace the old-fashioned type. Just joking, nice project!
