At first glance, it looks impossible — the frame only seems big enough for 9 pennies, but somehow, 10 actually fit. 😮
In this video, I take on the classic 10 Pennies Puzzle, a clever spatial illusion that challenges your sense of symmetry and spacing. I’ll show the setup, experiment with different patterns, and finally reveal the one ingenious arrangement that makes all 10 coins fit perfectly within the frame.
Perfect for fans of mechanical puzzles, math tricks, and optical illusions — or anyone who loves a satisfying “aha!” moment.

💡 Fun fact:
This puzzle beautifully demonstrates packing density — the ratio of how much area circles cover when arranged in different patterns.
Square packing ≈ 78.5% efficient
Hexagonal packing ≈ 90.7% efficient
That difference is just enough to squeeze in one extra coin!
