One 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, AlabamaAug 29th, 2022

I 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 JerseyMay 28th, 2021

I 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.

Loved 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, LisbonJan 31st, 2019

This 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, NMJul 4th, 2017

Although a bit angle sensitive, the vanish is very deceptive. And come on, it's free.

Madrid, MadridJan 12th, 2017

The 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.

TexasMar 24th, 2016

The 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.

USAOct 10th, 2015

Instruction 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.

Los AngelesOct 2nd, 2015

Definitely worth the practice; this is one of the best coin tricks I've seen in a while.

FloridaJan 13th, 2014

I like this! It is a little angle sensitive but the vanish and appearance are really clean. Great explanation from Rick Lax!

MaldivesOct 19th, 2013

I love this trick! It’s clean with an excellent presentation that is delivered with such enthusiasm and passion. Great work!

United KingdomSep 17th, 2013

Cool clean easy and it's free ;)

Saudi arabiaSep 4th, 2013

This is a great trick for street magic that could also be done with a half dollar coin from someone else, if they have one.

MarylandAug 28th, 2013

This is a great effect. It is clean and practical. It will take some practice but it is well worth it, especially for free!

USAAug 23rd, 2013

I love this trick so much! And it's free!!!

Sydney Aug 12th, 2013

This is a great trick just takes a little practice.

WashingtonAug 4th, 2013

A wonderful vanish/reappear. It's pretty tricky to get smooth and it's quite angle sensitive, but it's extremely powerful under the right conditions. Plus, it's free! You should at least give it a try.

KansasJul 23rd, 2013

This is just the kind of effect I was looking to find. It is difficult at first but it is definitely worth the practice.

ArizonaJul 21st, 2013

I love this trick so much! Thanks, Rick.

CaliforniaJul 17th, 2013

I love this trick. Thank you.

KoreaJun 7th, 2013

I love this coin trick. It is impromptu but it is a little hard. I still love it though!!!

Great trick! I've been looking for a new coin vanish. Thanks for the freebie and excellent presentation!

Good trick with great teaching by Rick Lax. He kind of rambles in the beginning but he get to the teaching soon enough.

USAApr 8th, 2013

Good trick. Every time I play poker with friends I use this trick.

PeruMar 7th, 2013

The sleights are awesome, and way easier than it's rated. Rick Lax has a good spirit and seriousness that lies in him, and therefore he gained all my respect. Great work Rick!

SwitzerlandJan 19th, 2013

Amazing trick! This is a great trick that will fool everyone! The best part is that it's free! :)

CanadaJan 7th, 2013

Great trick! Thanks for sharing and very best wishes.

Toronto, CanadaDec 31st, 2012

Amazing! Takes a lot of practice. Well done Rick!

United StatesDec 20th, 2012

I really like this because it taught me a better way to do the retention vanish as well as some cool vanishes to go with it. I don't usually do coin effects, but this is definitely a keeper.

IllinoisNov 26th, 2012

This is awesome! A little knacky, and kinda angly, but really great! More than that, it's versatile! Thank you Mr. Lax for another amazing trick!

Right behind youNov 20th, 2012

FREE!? Are you kidding me? This trick is awesome. Thanks for being so generous. You Rock Rick!

IndiaNov 19th, 2012

This is an awesome vanish that I can see myself using. Well done Rick.

AustraliaNov 16th, 2012

Takes a good bit of practise to make it smooth but Rick teaches it very well. It is clear that he put time into this and it really shows as his explanations are great. It is free so you can't go wrong by getting it.

IrelandNov 11th, 2012

The best free effect on the Wire by far! I love it! It's nowhere near as hard to learn as he makes it out to be - and it's free! I would have bought this for a fiver any day.

EnglandNov 5th, 2012

Amazing trick, and the fact that you've taken the time to create this trick and then put it out for free. I have the utmost respect for you. Thanks. Guys, you need to download this trick. It costs you nothing but your time, and it will repay you for that.

Good luck.

EnglandOct 25th, 2012

Takes a lot of practice but it's really good once you nail it.

LondonOct 14th, 2012

Get it! That's all I can say. The trick speaks for itself. AMAZING!

New YorkSep 18th, 2012

This is a great effect, I really like it but it's not as difficult as I would have thought. I really wish it was possible with quarters at the least but it's great especially because it's free!

Erie PaSep 8th, 2012

Thank you Rick this is awesome and everybody should download it. If you made a dvd I would buy it! IT'S FREE WHY NOT HIT DOWNLOAD!?

United KingdomAug 10th, 2012

Amazing, but it is also very hard if you are not a coin magician.

LatviaAug 7th, 2012

I use it all the time and get great reactions. It takes a little practice, but I use this to make the chip or coin to go on the spectator's shoulder or in a card box, etc.

USAAug 6th, 2012

Not hard and amazing!

UKAug 3rd, 2012

I use this all the time when I don't have cards and I get great reactions.

USAJul 24th, 2012

This is a wonderful sleight. May take some time to get down perfectly, but definitely worth the practice!

IllinoisJul 21st, 2012

This is not difficult at all! It is great and FREE!

SwedenJul 17th, 2012

Okay, this is N O T hard, it's very easy and I don't do coin magic at all. Get it, it's free, why not? :)

NESSJun 28th, 2012

Another creative sleight from Rick Lax. His talent for clear instruction and clean movements never ceases to disappoint! His welcoming personality makes it all worthwhile!

Sturgis, MIJun 26th, 2012

Thank you for sharing such good stuff!

Hong Kong Jun 24th, 2012

Thank you Rick for sharing some good stuff here. Your teaching skills are wonderful. I now have new things to work on!

Elkhart, Indiana Jun 20th, 2012

This a great trick from Rick Lax. The reappearances will take some time but it's great for being free.

IllinoisJun 20th, 2012

Best demonstration skills I have seen.

FloridaJun 18th, 2012

Great little impromptu dis/appearance - worth watching.

New YorkJun 17th, 2012

Love this trick. Great tutorial and very generous for free :) Great effect and definitely worth taking time to learn.

EnglandJun 17th, 2012

I love this, great job Rick. This is a very fun coin routine. Takes a little practice to get it fluid, but if you're into coins this is a great buy for you!

ArkansasJun 12th, 2012

It is great, but hard. Needs a lot of practice.

IranJun 10th, 2012

Definitely a great trick. I'm pretty new to magic so it's going to take practice to master but Rick is a great teacher and I have a little blue stone that I think will make this trick look awesome.

USAJun 8th, 2012

I'm not really a coin magician but I think I will definitely be performing this.

ArizonaJun 8th, 2012

This is a wonderful trick. Simple, easy to learn, and creative, yet complete and complex to master.

One thing to note, this is not for people new to coins, despite what people may think. The difficulty rating is fair. This is really nice.

USAJun 7th, 2012

AWESOMESAUCE!

UKJun 6th, 2012

Rick Lax is a good teacher, I'm downloading in right now. I don't have to see the trick to know it deserves a 5 stars!!!

MontrealJun 5th, 2012

Very cool and clever. This trick is one you will actually use, and IT'S FREE!!

Utah, USAJun 3rd, 2012

One word, AWESOME.

AustraliaJun 2nd, 2012

I NEED TO KNOW HOW THIS IS DONE!!!

Brandon FlJun 2nd, 2012

This is a great trick! In contrary to what the level meter says about this trick, it actually is not that hard.

The NetherlandsJun 1st, 2012

Rick is a great teacher. Download now!

Buffalo NYJun 1st, 2012

Looks awesome considering it's free! But it won't download for me? Maybe it's just my PC.

ukJun 1st, 2012

Rick Lax is the most generous magician ever! He could have sold this for 5 bucks and it still been worth it but he gave it for free! No complaints. Get this. I will be getting more Rick Lax products in the future because of this. Im not a coin guy but this is awesome. Go Rick Lax!!!

Georgia, USAMay 31st, 2012

This is just too good to be free (:

SingaporeMay 31st, 2012

Awesome Job as always! One thing I gotta say though is change the setting to at least Easy or Medium because it's not that hard. But, very good trick and I love it!

CaliforniaMay 30th, 2012

That's so nice of you Rick to do something so great for free! I don't think I need to review anything.

PortugalMay 30th, 2012

Loved it when it was on youtube, love it more knowing the details of the sleights he has used.

CA, USAMay 30th, 2012

This is awsome Rick! One of the best ''coin'' tricks I've seen. And it's free! Great Job Rick, keep doing amazing stuff! I love you!

RomaniaMay 30th, 2012

FREE?! You're awesome Rick.

Australia May 30th, 2012

This is why I love Rick Lax: amazing effects, and they are really hard hitting. I performed Detach on the last day of school with one of the senior's balloons, and freaked the entire school out. This man is amazing - great job, Rick.

Detroit, MIMay 29th, 2012

Very good explanation.
