Simulate by still using the same normal non-simulated coin lol.
Simulate a flip... or in other words... don't actually flip the coin normally.
So basically... it was a trick question

That's not what I mean.
Say it's 60% chance to be heads and 40% chance to be tails. Each flip it's that exact same chance. 60% heads, and 40% tails. It doesn't matter how many times you flip it. And redefining and equivocating by calling a bunch of flips a "throw" won't change the reality.
