    Just wanted to say that your description of accuracy vs precision seemed backwards. Accuracy is the ability to hit the target, and precision is the ability to hit the same spot (or close) regardless if you hit the target or not. With that said, you hitting the square box on the sheet was a precision activity, while you hitting the glass is an accuracy activity. You had it backwards.

    We would do this at lunch time in high-school with nickles. Things would launch across the room and we'd wait for a distant "owwwww" to be heard. Needless to say we were pretty dumb at that age cause a nickle could do some serious damage which we learned later in life after someone's forehead got nailed and split open. Pennies also work really well.

    Pull your hand up towards your ear and aim with your elbow. If you learn to SNAP your arm in a bending position very quickly it increases the available power to your hand. You'll know when you're good when you can audibly hear the buzzing of them tumbling through the air. We used to do this in middle school and I could at one point stick us nickels into drywall. Quarters hit harder but are slow, pennies tumble too much and curv because they lack weight. Nickels are Chefs kiss.

    Was doing this 30+ years ago and the most power is gained when winding up like a cross body pitch. Holding coin as you were but instead of locking your wrist, shoulder and elbow you use them like a fulcrum and snap the coin at the end of your arm stroke. Was possible to put US copper penny partly into drywall and leave serious welts on an opponent. Think of airsoft but with coins in a confined space.

    It's not useless it's a distraction device and could you imagine people smack quarters together to attract squirrels could you imagine using this as a survival tool I've weaponized coins before not only by putting an edge on one side but also super gluing exacto blades on them to make like throwing stars so I'd say that the skill is completely underrated. Although you could be the judge I'd say make yourself a little credit card coin launcher and compare it to the flick and you tell me which one's better.
