The arcade coin Mikoto generally uses is not only less massive than a bullet, it is also far less aerodynamic. AND on top of that, it isn't really much faster than a bullet fired from an assault rifle. The M-16 for example fires bullets at around 950/1000 m/s, which is very close to the speed of Mikoto's railgun....
yeah but i've heard as an example if someone dropped a coin from the empire state building and it hits a car it'll crush a car.

besides its not like her coins make soooo much damage. Its just debris from the coin hitting the floor so fast and hard. Every railgun explosion we see thats big might be mainly from the lightning surrounding the coin?
