Take two coins, if they are equal then neither is a counterfit. Keep one of those coins on the scale. Take another coin, if it is not the same it is the counterfit. I guess I'm back to a minimum of two not three, sorry. BIll

A very modest lady applied for a job at the factory where they made "Tickle Me Elmo dolls". It was Friday and almost quitting time and hurriedly the boss told her to report for work on Monday. He quickly explained to her she would be stationed on the assembly line just before the dolls were packed into boxes. On Monday they started up the line and within twenty minutes had to shut it down because one worker couldn't keep up. The boss went down the line to find the problem. The new employee was very busy trying to do her part but she had a bunch of dolls waiting for her. Closer examination showed she was sewing little cloth bags containing two walnuts in the appropriate place on the dolls. The boss could not control his laughter and said, "Lady, I said to give each doll Two----Test----Tickles."
