Throughout an entire high-level SP tournament, I used a "gold" coin I found in the parking lot when I arrived. Actually, it was a "token" intended for use in certain, uh . . . entertainment arcades.
On the obverse (heads), the token depicted the figure of a young woman from the waist up; the reverse (tails) depicted the figure from the waist down. I will leave it to readers of this post to divine what degree of clothing was depicted on this figure. This flip coin was quite successful. Though players were accustomed to ASA flip coins, I received compliments on it throughout the tournament.
I believe it is of socio-anthropological interest that in all 28 games I did over the four days, everyone whose duty it was to call "heads" or "tails" made the same call (in the vernacular, of course).
