In 2005 I was in Georgetown, on the island of Penang in Malaysia. I came across this rather attractive little spinner in a shop there:

Sides 1 and 2 of the Spinner

Sides 3 and 4 of the Spinner

Beyond being used for gambling, I have no idea what game it might have been used for, or what the symbols on it are meant to mean. I came across it again recently, and liked it so much I thought I should do something with it.

To that end I have scanned in the images on each face and put them on this page, where a random face will be selected each time the button is pressed or the page is reloaded. Enjoy!
