The 2nd edition of the spinning coin is not only characterized by a a brand new design but also by a revised form. Improved production technology has made it possible to increase the height of the shaft by 22% up to 15.4mm. This allows you to spin the coin easier and longer than ever before.
Spinning tops originated independently in different cultures across the world, with some specimens believed to be up to 6000 years old. The Romans even crafted spinning tops from boxwood or terracotta. Back then, they were not only used as toys, but also for games of chance and prophecy. Nowadays, spinning tops serve the purpose of entertainment and high spirits. And, of course, the competition to see who can spin it the longest.
