Lucky Flip/Marker Coin?

[Colonel]

Do any of you carry a particular coin for flipping for break, game marker under the rail, or for when you owe a ball in 1P as a token of luck so to speak?

I’ve carried these for years. The penny was my father’s which came into my possession when he passed. The nickel is mine, a gift from him to me the day I set out on my first road adventure many years ago. What a long strange trip it’s been.

Awesome coins!

I like carrying the Georgia quarter with the peach on the back. I like calling peach instead of heads/tails. It's also not super common anymore so it's easy to keep your quarter separate.

A few years ago we lost a team member and all around great guy to cancer. We had medalions made and sold them. Everyone who knew him wanted one. All of the proceeds went to Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center in his honor. This is what I use. His name is hidden as I don't like posting anyone's name on the net. His nickname appears on the "tails" side. About 1 1/2 inch diameter.

I have a pair of ‘double-sided’ quarters (just for laughs), but don’t dare carry/display them. If a person was unethical, he could carry the double-‘tails‘ one, and always let his opponent make the call (statistics reveal majority will call ‘heads’)

I keep 2 Kennedy half’s in my bag for keeping score under the rails.
Not old silver ones, things under the rail tend to get lost.

I used to carry one of these.

I forgot about those! I one of those back in the 70's. I wonder if it's in some box in the attic or back of some closet?

Thank you for noticing ha ha Black Balled you should hear what some of my crow Indian friends call me when I had a permit to shoot a buffalo on the reservation I don't miss very often when there's a year's worth of meat on the hoof and about to take off for parts unknown !

I always leave the hall with my pockets empty or leave the coins on the table when they are not….had a little green squishy from my daughter to mark pockets with in APA for a while though. And before that a pink one. They don’t last long in your pocket before they turn to junk.

I don't like carrying coins, and usually make a point of leaving them behind when I play pool.
