LOGINto earn pointsOne of my favorite coin tricks. Only downside is doesn't work with a quarter. It has to be at least the size of a poker chip.
Alabaster, Alabama • Aug 29th, 2022I think the trick is very cool in a video or online but it won't really work well in person because it is so angle sensitive. It is a very good trick for the money though.
New Jersey • May 28th, 2021I have several Rick Lax videos and every one of them is excellent. I was very excited to see this one listed here, especially since it's in my favorite price range, and I was not disappointed. Rick explains everything very well, as he always does, and this is an excellent effect, as his always are. The basic moves are simple enough to pick up quickly, but it should be noted that you will need some practice to do the moves smoothly and perfectly. Rick also provides three different finishes and I would recommend that you choose the one that for whatever reason appeals to you the most and concentrate on learning that one rather than trying to learn all three equally. Once you feel you have one finish down pat, you can always go back and work on another.
Mass. • Feb 1st, 2021Loved this one. Thank you so much. And it is not that difficult. After some practice it becomes easy to perform. It is necessary to be mindful of the angles to pull this off without flashing the coin. It is FREE ... Awesome
Lisbon, Lisbon • Jan 31st, 2019This video is very well done and Rick is an excellent teacher. I could figure out the vanish from the trailer so I don't think this should be labeled "advanced" but all the moves were well-explained and the re-appearances are top notch. As always, thanks for the freebie.
Santa Fe, NM • Jul 4th, 2017Although a bit angle sensitive, the vanish is very deceptive. And come on, it's free.
Madrid, Madrid • Jan 12th, 2017The tutorial is very well done, but I am a bit concerned about the angles. It's quite tricky to work with, but the payout looks really clean in the end.
Texas • Mar 24th, 2016The instruction is fantastic and the trick itself is fantastic. I don't care much for the coin reappearance angles but all in all pretty good I think.
USA • Oct 10th, 2015Instruction is perfect. So well done. I'm new to coin magic and this is difficult and I'm still able to get the hang of it. Good job and thank you so much.

UK • Aug 3rd, 2012I use this all the time when I don't have cards and I get great reactions.

Arkansas • Jun 12th, 2012It is great, but hard. Needs a lot of practice.

Arizona • Jun 8th, 2012This is a wonderful trick. Simple, easy to learn, and creative, yet complete and complex to master.
