    It has only 1 corner, and 2 surfaces, making it 2 sided. The 2 sides just happen to be curved

          That extremely rare, almost-never chance of landing on the edge is exactly what I would program into a game if I made one, instead of exactly 50% odds.

                This gave me an idea for a gimmick die. Transparent die filled with dark liquid. The exterior of the die has the usual numbers in white lettering. Inside the die, there is a smaller cork die that rises like a magic 8ball. It’s 2d(x) in 1. Interesting for tension building, if nothing else.

                One of my overdue projects is to disassemble a magic 8 ball, remove the dice from it and make a digital magic 8 ball. I plan to bequeath the removed “dice” to a DM I know.

                  You have to wait for it to finish rolling up if it lands with a value on the down side.

                      This was my thought. Mfers be out here debating whether the thing depicted is actually a "two sided" dice, meanwhile coins just be chillin over there getting ignored. Y'all be trippin.

                            A standard US nickel, yes. I prefer better odds than that… [Thick Nickels](https://thick-coins.net/)

                              The picture is of a d4. Dice are measured counting the flats (and therefore possible number of different results) not mathematically defined "sides".

                                If you wanna get loosey-goosey with it and count the curved bit as a result, its still just a d6 lmao

                                  Even not considering that, they still aren't 50-50 odds. The stamped printing on both sides throws off the balance just enough to bias one side over the other.

                                    Make sure to wear long gloves and short sleeves. The dye in that water is *strong*. I was purple for days after cracking an 8ball and people kept asking how I got hurt.

                                          Coins are just really unbalanced three-sided dice.
