TEXAS OFFICIALS- CUSTOM FLIPPING COINS
« on: November 18, 2019, 10:56:14 PM »
I am attempting to design a custom flipping coin. Do any of  Texas officials have any ideas or current coins I could get ideas from?

Still using one that James Kile gave me (which means many, many years ago).  With a sharpie, color in the helmet on the heads side, and, with a different color, fill in the, uh, 'hiney' on the tails side, and you can't miss.  Gotta refresh the color a couple of times during the season, but, I haven't found a better size or better images.  Yeah, might be nice if the coin came with powder coated colors.  But good, as is.

We are dating ourself admitting we know James.

I still have mine somewhere. After the flip we gave the coin to the winner of the toss

This is the one I designed last year.  Very simple.

A question.  Do you give those coins out to both teams coaches?

Coaches?  Why would you give them to any coach?  If you give them away, which is an honorable (and perhaps expensive) thing to do, give them to the talking captain of the team winning the coin toss.

I have seen Referees give both coaches a coin in playoff games. I never have but I have seen it.

Do you bring another coin at half just in case you go overtime?

When I was in that chapter, it was long before overtime. But I see your point
