About the Left or Right

Left or right is the purest two-way choice there is — no pros, no cons, just two directions. This coin keeps it that simple: flip, read the side, turn that way. It was made for coin-flip walks, where you flip at every intersection and let chance route you somewhere you have never bothered to go.

The same flip covers anything arranged side by side. Two doors, two queues, two identical items on a shelf, the left or right seat, which hand is hiding the sweet. Whenever the options are literally positioned left and right, this coin answers in the exact vocabulary of the problem.

Four quick steps

How to use it

  1. Stand at the fork — literal or otherwise.
  2. Flip the coin.
  3. Go the way it says: left is left, right is right.
  4. On a coin-flip walk, flip again at every new intersection.

Useful moments

  • Pick a supermarket queue or airport security lane without agonizing.
  • Choose between two identical items on a shelf.
  • Play guess-which-hand with kids using a referee that can't be accused of cheating.
