A spinner coin has a second piece that rotates on a pin pressed through the coin, so the center of the design spins with a flick.
There are two styles. Internal spinners sit inside a cut out portion of the coin and rotate within it; the bigger the cut out, the heavier the spinner and the longer it spins. Floating spinners sit on top of the coin face and rotate like the hands of a clock while the face stays still.
Because the coin and the spinner each need their own mold, spinner coins cost more than a standard challenge coin, and the moving piece becomes the centerpiece of the design.
