I have a question regarding the T.U.C. I hear that it is the most versatile coin gimmick because it can work as both a flipper coin and as a shell. Does this gimmick, however, require a special coin insert or does it work with any normal coin of that particular size like an expanded shell does?

I actually now have some other questions. Is the T.U.C at all like a Slippery Sam, and if so, which do you prefer and recommend?

in my opinion the tuc is not that practical. i perfer the n2 coin set which replaces a shell and flipper and is examinable
 
Could you maybe explain why you think that, YGM7? I just looked up the N2 Coin Set and it is not sounding so good, so why do you think that it is better than the tuc?
 
Honestly speaking, I do not get all the hype about the TUC... You cannot use it as a normal expanded shell, it requires a special shaved down and thinned out magnetic insert. Id rather just get an expanded shell that fits over all other coins. Even a STC sounds better.

Also, i've never heard of a N2 set before, who makes these?
 
n2 magic makes them and you can get them at penguinmagic
and to answer junkbox's question: it is examinable as i stated before. that really is the only advantage. you can do all of the effects a tuc and an expanded shell can with it. people often said it is very similar to the STC but i dont own it so i can not say
plus it comes with a cool looking gimmicked leather coin purse that you can keep all your coins in (and using the gimmick in the purse with the coin you can do a sweet coin through glass table as shown on the demo)
the DVD teaches the coin thru glass table and an awesome 3 fly
