This is a quintessential Slydini routine, a tour-de-force of misdirection combined with lapping, secret takes, and drops. A single coin miraculously vanishes and reappears several times. It almost seems to be melting away between the fingers of the performer.
Dennis will teach you all the details - essentially the same way how Slydini taught him. Additionally, you will get recollections and stories of how it was studying under Slydini in his apartment. It is a great way to learn this wonderful routine.

★★★★★ Date Added: Wednesday 25 June, 2025I am a hobbyist magician. I saw a friend doing some of the routine at a magic gathering with friends and it was so much fun to watch I just had to learn it. So, I found an internet search led me here. The teaching is great. It's comprehensive and easily reviewable. I love how it's taught in beats that make it like learning a piece of music. There's history brought into the instruction as well and that's an appreciated. It adds a human touch to a time I was not privy to, due to my age. While I gravitate more to walk-around magic, this gives me something work with when I'm at a table, so I'd use it more informally. That being said, it's powerful and leaves an impression. You can look up Slydini doing this and see the reactions he gets. It's incredible stuff.
I don't know that I can think of anything negative. It's taught, as explained by Mr. Ferri, as he was taught by Slydini himself. You can't get much closer to the source. If you have any interest in magic with coins, it's worth learning and this video is fantastic.

★★★★★ Date Added: Saturday 16 September, 2023D. Angelo Ferri's aka Dennis Barlotta is one of the few qualified to teach Slydini's material. This should be studied along with the Coins Through the Table.
