It was good but work on your coin switch. Also, it kinda gives in away when you bend a coin a lot then once you hand it out to be examined it's only slightly bent.
 
I thought it was ok but like the others have mentioned, the coin switch was not very good. With some work I'm sure it will be a good piece. I am not a coin guy at all so I cannot give you any pointers. Sorry. Keep practicing and showing it to other magicians live so they can give you feedback.
 
Aside from the obvious work needed on the "move", I would say you really need to focus on patter. If I saw you performing at like a fair or something, that's the type of thing I'd just keep on walking on by. There's no hook, the patter is repetitive and boring, and it just doesn't look thought out at all. I'm not trying to sound rude, but please, do put an emphasis on patter once you have the move down (and please, please, PLEASE, do NOT perform the effect until you've worked on your presentation, in particular the patter...that can take a trick from being "Heh, neat", to "HOLY $#!&!!!!" etc.). :)
 
Many asked for this link to be removed due to exposure. Overall, I thought you did an OK job. Even so, if it's not perfect, it should not be put up.
