Has anyone played around with a shimmed [ and a magnet coin? I believe both Todd and Jamie offer them. From what I have read it sound like unnesting is still easy, but you can handle the nested pair quite a bit more freely than you could over wise. I have been told that the only problem is...

Did you have the shim added? -ThisOneGoesTo11

I would say that depends on how much time a person has dedicated to mastering any of the mentioned sleights, how natural they look and then creating proper motivation for the movement. There isn't a wave in the Flash Change (at least not in the text; Roth might wave his hand in the videos)...

This question is probably best answered by the premise of the coin effect. Take for example the classic effect from Bobo's called "The Gadabout Coins" (page 182 of "New Modern Coin Magic") or any of its more modern variants (such as Dan Watkin's "Sticky Coins".) Three coins are introduced...

Au Contraire, Mon Frère. They would be visible spellbound-ish "color changes" only if the two coins were visibly different. Roth's Palm Change and Lotta's deep backclip recovery are often used in copper/silver routines to invisibly switch a gimmick in and out of play. Kenner's "bus...

First let me start by saying I don't own Pyris, nor do I know the method. So speaking from a view point of just switching one half dollar sized coin for another, here are a few rambling options ordered from easy to difficult: Bobo Switch - Classic. Fairly easy to master. (Page 10 of J.B...

Glad you *got* my sense of humor. :) -ThisOneGoesTo11

That comment and this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vTOU6vSrPw ...has earned you the Delta Tau Kai name of "Double Stuffed". :D Cool video, by the way... :) (ThisOneGoesTo11, turns and slowly walks away.... Then stops, turns around "Columbo style" and says...) Just one...

I could be wrong, but I don't believe you can get Ike dollars coins at banks anymore. Currently there are two $1 coins; the Sacagawea $1 coin and now the "Presidential" $1 coins. http://www.usmint.gov/mint_programs/$1coin/index.cfm Both are a similar size to the Susan B. Anthony $1...

I believe the "free" Shellraiser shell is the same as the one that Nathan Kranzo sells. http://kranzomagic.myshopify.com/collections/frontpage/products/ultra-versatile-shell Can't beat the price of $15, or two for $20, but according to this post on another forum site...

I second Chicken's comment. Start with something inexpensive. You may find that the routines simply "are not you" so why waste money on the Rolls Royce of coin gimmick sets only to have the coins sit in a drawer. However (If you fall in love with the routines) you will find that while it may...

Yes, this is true. If you have DVD player software for your computer, you can play the .VOB files on the disk directly. (I believe windows media player allows this, and I know that VLC under Linux allows this.) Both files are in the VIDEO_TS directory. VTS_23_1.VOB ...is the funny...

I don't think you will be disappointed. The "Coin Handling" section alone is worth the price of the DVD. -ThisOneGoesTo11

Correction... Homer does speak in parts of this one. :) -ThisOneGoesTo11

It has arrived! Watching CoinTwo right now... (I'm number 192 out of 1000). So far everything is very beautifully done, the music is haunting and the two routines are VERY nice explorations of ExTROYdinary-ish stand up coin magic. So far there is no speaking, as in CoinOne. -ThisOneGoesTo11

Did you mean Kenner's Unicoin? -ThisOneGoesTo11

Shhhhh.... There are only 1000. According to Bob Kohler, Homer already sold 150 of them at the World Magic Seminar two weeks ago. http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/search_post.php?topic=256636&forum=111&post=5544312 ...that means less than 850 left, since I have already ordered mine...

If you bought every half dollar in the bank, you would not get a single 1964 silver half dollar. The best advise is this: If you don't do tricks where it matters if the coins "talk" (i.e. make noise when rubbed together) then the silver 1964 Kennedy half is a very pretty (and visible) coin...
