Who pinched the dice? (Posted on 2018-10-04) Difficulty: 3 of 5

My friends and I wanted to play Monopoly, but the dice were missing from the game.

Searching our pockets, we had 4 coins between us, all different: 10c, 50c, $1, and $2.

How can we best emulate a pair of dice with these coins, assuming that they are fair?

I like your solution better as it doesn't require replication
