What Makes a Coin Toss Unfair?

Coins can be unfair if they're not balanced. Imagine a coin that's heavier on one side, when you toss it, it might land more often on the heavy side. That means heads or tails is more likely to win. If we want a fair game, we need a fair coin, like the ones used in magic shows.
