Effect

The magician explains how he makes money while traveling the world by taking advantage of currency exchange rates in various countries.

Starting with a one-dollar bill (green), he folds it in half to reveal an Australian note (bright green). Folds it in half again to reveal a twenty-euro note (blue). One more fold reveals a hundred-yen note (red). Finally, when the bill is unfolded, it has now transformed into a one hundred-dollar bill-which can be thoroughly examined.

That's a lot of bang for your buck, and a geography lesson at the same time!

Comes with detailed illustrated instruction booklet and gimmick bill.

Good idea, bad product Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 8th, 2010
This was a good idea. It is basically like Daniel Garcia's Greed only different method and slightly different presentation where the bill keeps changing into different foreign currencies. I like the presentation for this better than Greed but the gimmick that comes with this is of terrible quality. I had high hopes for this, but it fails to impress people I show it to because the gimmick looks fake.

Right on the money Report this review

The gimmick is perfect. I have made many of these over the years and they don't last. This Tyvek gimmick folds tight, the colors are spot on and it will last for a very long time.

I think that the complaints about the altered back design are rooted in an unnecessary fear that it will be discovered. It won't. The coloration and organizations of the alterations make them invisible when handled properly. Take it out, show it briefly, and get to business. No worries!

I would recommend getting a 2 dollar bill to end with, claiming that "with the exchange rates I can double my money!". It doesn't have to end with a large bill.

a great trick Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 20th, 2012
i thought the gimmick was funny! the detail on the bill--ok, on the ONE side of it was a riot. it's not real currency, but LOOKS real from a distance--or closer if you're not studying it closely.

i so wanted this trick to be a DVD. one can learn a great deal from watching Greg Wilson perform.

Fake bills but a well-made gimmick !

A good addition to a classic bill switch routine.

Underrated gem Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 28th, 2016
I'm not sure why the one reviewer called this a bad product. It's a quality product and very durable (Tyvek material).

You even hand out the final bill for inspection (it doesn't have to be a hundred dollar bill), so you END CLEAN!

Regarding the other reviewer wanting to see Greg perform and explain this routine, it's on his DVD "In Action" (Vol 3).

So I think that this is an underrated product...but maybe it's best to keep it that way? ;-)
