Easy to do and incredibly visual Report this review

Mark's thinking on this is brilliant. Instead of trying to walk your spectator through "This is an American coin, this is a British coin, etc.", you just keep them on colors. The benefit of this is that you now have a coin trick that kids can easily follow as well. The changes are visual and incredibly fast, with very little sleight of hand work involved (he says none, but there are a couple of separations you must do that involve timing). I was practicing this without the video five minutes after watching it, and performed it twenty minutes after practice to a stunned crowd...it's that easy!

The only downside to it is the gimmick coin. It's a little larger than the others, and when you switch it in initially you'll have to keep everything moving so it's not noticed, but once the routine begins no one will catch it. The props are high quality, and this is powerful stuff that lets you concentrate on presentation rather than knuckle-busting...and it resets instantly as you finish the routine so you can run this again and again with no reset between tables!
