I've been doing magic for just over 30 years. I had some shells in the past from Johnson but,
regrettably I lost them. Having found myself needing one I ordered the expanded shell by Tango. I
can honestly say that I have NEVER seen such a poorly ill fitted shell in my life! The depth of the
shell was so shallow that it barely went over the edge of the coin and was conspicuous beyond
belief. Tango....NEVER again!

Alot of these reviews are negative, but this is very good, especially for the price. If your going
to use a shell every day for preforming, your probably gonna want to prob spend some money on a
Johnson but if your a causal magician this works good enough, and looks real enough. Id recommend
it.

They are milled from actual coin and just the rim is strecheched so there is very little blurring on
the shell.
Goes well with a Super Expanded Shell. A amgician since I was 8 and 21 now, this is
the shell I'll use form now on!

Don't waste your money on this shell. Very bad quality. It doesn't look like a normal coin. It looks
fake. It's terrible! Not recommended.

fun to have.

This particular shell is stretched to much. Side by side with a normal half you will see a huge
difference. Not worth the money. I purchased one can't use it, can't even sell it. It is that bad.
Roy Kueppers makes a nice shell. Unfortunately Penguin is out of stock. My advice wait until they
restock and purchase Roy's.
Muy buena factura, terminaciones muy buenas
This shell is exactly what I was hoping it would be. It fits excellently over the US half dollars I
have. With practice the shell can be handled just like a full coin. I highly recommend it for any
specific coin routines that might benefit from a shell.
I thought tango would have produced a better shell, since this is their specialty! It doesn’t fit
right and looks so shiny and fake. Never will I ever buy from tango again. I really wanted to buy
from Roy Kueppers but penguin sold out unfortunately.
