I got it. Posting the answer in white below.

<font color="white"> Make a pile of 18 and a pile of 32. Then turn the pile of 32 upside-down.
. </font>

<font color="white"> this doesn't make sense, if you have a pile of 32 that is half heads and half tails, the flipped pile will be the same, the coins aren't already in piles, that would be stupidly easy

Huh? Explain.

why would making two piles and flipping one over do anything, the piles aren't sorted so the piles could and probably do contain boths heads and tails coins, so doing this accomplishes nothing
