A lot of poor answers here.
A circle is the locus of all points in a plane equidistant from a central point. It's a 2-dimensional shape. When you draw a circle on paper and cut it out, you don't have a circle.... you have a cylinder, which is 3-dimensional.
Mathematically speaking a circle can not have 2 sides.

Inside the circle, and outside of the circle. Very simple. Plus there is the upper and lower sides, the north, south, east and west of a circle, you could make up all the sides you want if you really think about it. Good question!!

A yin-yang does. It's split inside the circle into 2 sides.

cut a paper in the shape of a circle. place it on ur hands. the face which is upwards is the top side and the face touching ur hand is the down side. thus a circle has 2 sides!

a circle has an inside and an outside, a disc has two sides, but a filled circle in one dimension only has one side.

It can't, unless you accept the 'inside and outside' explanation. Also, a coin is not a circle, as a circle is a two-dimensional object.

I would say that, that's impossible.
No matter which way you rotated it, it would still be round, w/o edges. To have sides, don't you kinda haveta have edges? That didn't come out quite the way I wanted it to, but see what I'm saying?

Circles are two dimensional, therefore they have a front and back or top and bottom, depending on your perspective.
