    There is probably something wrong because it should have been tail half and heads half the time.

    The probability of that happening is only. 1/32 ... pretty small, but not impossible. I wouldn't blame the coin though, until he tosses it 100 or 200 times, and gets a split that's wildly different from 50-50.
