Abstract
A relativistic quantum exchange protocol enabling "coin tossing at a distan ce" between two participants is proposed. The exchange protocol is based on the fact that to distinguish a pair of orthogonal states with certainty in relativistic quantum mechanics requires a finite time that depends on the structure of the states themselves.
