Coins, Chips & Buttons in Magic & Conjuring: page 2

This is a two part routine - vanish three coins, one by one, and reproduce the same three coins again one by one.

The reason Radek prefers to first vanish coins and then make them reappear, as apposed to have three coins appear and then vanish them, is the fact that you can do this routine with borrowed coins. You start with examined coins and then show a miracle which is much stronger than the other way around. You borrow coins or take them out of your pocket – at this point there is no doubt these are just three regular coins. Magic starts when you vanish them. When the coins are re-produced...

Hypnotic Spellbound is a spellbound just like any other -- a few different color changes of a coin in one sequence. There is one sleight difference. There are two common ways of performing Spellbound. One of them is a show of pure skill -- the magician changes the coin's color one time right after the other without saying anything. The second most common type is the same as above but the magician also describes what's happening -- "the coin changes color from... to..." etc.

A really strong piece of mentalism that is impromptu and can be performed literally in every single performing situation is not too easy to find. This, however, fits the bill beautifully.

Effect: The mentalist places a business card onto the table. The audience is told that there is a prediction underneath the business card, but that it will not be shown to them until later. The performer reaches into his pocket (or wherever) and brings out three invisible coins: a nickel, a quarter, and a dime. The spectator is told to imagine that she sees them. The performer lays the imaginary coins in...

In the coin routine Fred Miser, three silver coins change to copper one at a time, and then back to silver. Although you will need gaffed coins (a sun and moon coin and a half dollar from an unexpanded shell set), the gaffs allow for very clean displays and make the routine relatively easy to perform. This is a coin routine performed in the hands, which automatically resets.

As an added bonus we have included Raymonde's handling for Royal Magic's "Coin Funnel," which is like a chop cop routine using ungaffed or even borrowed quarters, and ends with a surprise production. The routine is performed...

length 12min

This is his version of a classic routine, without the use of a wand. Many useful techniques are taught here, but it will be a challenge to accomplish.

The master of the Spanish coinmagic presents one of the best routines of the symposium. Pure sleight of hand, pure magic and total enjoyment. A coins thru glass routine with seldom seen technique. A perfect lead in to a matrix or a four coin routine. Routine work at the table. Intermediate level.

This is a wonderful version of the classic matrix effect - four coins and four cards. Each coin starts under one card in 4 different places. Eventually all coins assemble magically one by one under one card. The description includes a beautiful display move which allows you to show a card in one hand while you hide a coin in the same.

length 5 min

You can almost smell the popcorn and hear the screams from the roller coaster as the magician unfolds the game board to demonstrate this seldom seen scam entitled Capture The Coin. With two coins placed on a checkerboard-like mat, the mark attempts to beat the game operator by moving in turn their coins one square at a time. If the mark successfully eludes the operator's coin from catching (moving into the same intersection of the lines as his), the mark wins. If the operator corners the mark's coin and then moves his coin into the same intersection of lines as the mark's coin, the operator...

One of the popular magicians' coins is a Chinese coin with a hole. Imagine you are pulling a real nail out of the hole. Chinese Nail is a super visual effect that will add to your coin performance.

A new take on Fechter's Flying Eagles.

Double Cross Doubloons is my version of Fechter's "Flying Eagles" routine, which is a tabled coin effect that has the advantage of not needing gaffed coins, gimmicks, or a soft surface like a close-up mat, nor are there any clothing requirements like sleeves, making it very practical for the restaurant worker or impromptu performer.

Double Cross Doubloons uses only six normal coins.

In this routine, each coin travels across via a different method, and ends in a flash crossing of all three coins, providing a climax that is missing from the original....

Invisiblair is a coin holdout with improvements. It is made of a synthetic material that is invisible even closeup. You will receive instructions on how to make this holdout, not the holdout itself. The hookup and basics of making a coin appear and vanish are described but no larger routines. For effects and routines with Invisiblair see Michael's other publications.

Show an empty bottle (with or without contents) and borrow a coin. Wrap this coin in some paper and place it on the lid of the bottle. Take a lighter (can be borrowed) and light the paper. The coin visibly penetrates the lid of the bottle and lands inside the bottle. The bottle can be examined immediately and given away as a souvenir.

Gregg Webb discusses some aspects of coin magic that have bothered him for a long time. How to best get rid of an extra coin without arousing suspicion? What is the problem with the Bobo Switch?

In Triplets 3 - The All Coin Issue, Gregg describes a platform version of Hanging Coins with 3 coins so that it fits in with 3-Fly for those that do that trick. Also, the last coin actually vanishes instead of just being held at the fingertips as in the Roth original.

Next is a routine that looks like a standard Han Ping Chien trick but in reality is done by a completely different method - Pseudo HPC.

A routine using the Nokito Box which is described in David Roth's book Expert Coin Magic. A second ending is provided using a regular Okito Box.

Finally, a new feature, Magic News, has...

A card is selected and signed by the audience and is lost back in the deck. A coin is signed by the audience and placed on top of the deck. With a wave of your hand and the coin vanishes from the top and appears above their signed card in the middle of the deck.
