I have an apothecary scale -- that is, I can measure two masses against each other. I also have nine coins. One coin appears the exact same as all the others, but it is a counterfeit -- it weighs more. Using the scale only twice, how do you find the counterfeit coin in my hand?
EXPLAIN!

First, weigh 3 vs 3 coins
If one side is heavier, take the heavier 3 coins
If both side same, take leftover 3 coins

Now weigh 1 vs 1 coin from 3 heavier/leftover coins
If one side is heavier, that's the heavier coin
If both side same, last coin is heavier coin
