I don't know if this is the correct place to post this question, but my father passed away recently. He was an amateur magician and had a number of tricks. This is one we found but we have no idea what it is, what it does, or what it is worth. None of us can ever remember him performing this trick. It consists of a wooden box with a heavy magnet in it (very heavy - maybe 10 pounds). There is also a steel ring, book of matches, and a false finger tip in the box, as you can see in the pictures. Any information you may have on it would be helpful. Does the trick have a name? Who produced it? What does it do? What is it worth? Like I said, anything would be helpful.
Thanks!
