Different puzzles with coins are
very popular among all puzzle lovers. Using a few coins
from your pocket or wallet, you can almost instantly
prepare your favorite coin challenge to stump your
friends in a leisure time. Mostly, these challenges have
a nice pattern and an idea that can be easy explained,
but not far all of them can be easy solved. There is
some number of classic coin puzzles, but not too many
compared to puzzles with matchsticks. Still their
spectrum and number are slowly growing with every new
coin puzzle which are created nowadays. Here I'd like to present some
clever challenges with coins.
