Hey mate,

I did a bit of research for you and found what you're looking for, the effect is called "Fickle Nickel" by John Cornelius, as performed by Doug Henning and Siegfried. It is gimmicked, and can be bought directly from John here: http://www.johncornelius.com/magic.html#fickle

Here's a thread about it in The Magic Cafe forums: http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?topic=102130&forum=109&26&start=0

The Cafe is pretty trustworthy in terms of opinions about products. I haven't actually read the page in its entirety though, but have a look
