heads or tails

орёл или решка

Examples from texts

Goodness knows what these devils are up to, I never can make head or tail of it.
Чорт знает, что затевают эти черти, никогда не мог разобрать.

The possessed
Dostoevsky, Fyodor
The first letter Grushenka got from them was a long one, written on large notepaper and with a big family crest on the seal. It was so obscure and rhetorical that Grushenka put it down before she had read half, unable to make head or tail of it.
Первое письмо, полученное Грушенькой, было длинное, на почтовом листе большого формата, запечатанное большою фамильною печатью и страшно темное и витиеватое, так что Грушенька прочла только половину и бросила, ровно ничего не поняв.
