Does anyone have Invisible Coin by Smagic Productions? Seems to be a similar routine to Egyptian Ink by Abdullah Mahmoud and SansMinds Creative Lab; where a signed coin switches but seems to be a little cleaner as in the trailer you can examine both coins straight away; looks like it could be more usable then Egyptian Ink.. thoughts ?

Good question. I was thinking the same thing.

I think it's hard to tell from the demo video. Obviously there is additional writing that has to take place just like EI which is not shown in the demo video. And IF this is the case I would think EI would be more visually appealing since the change takes place in real time and not in closed hands. But clarification would be great. Hope someone can comment?

The thing that caught my attention about it is that the spectator ends with the coin in their hand (and from the trailer ) it looks like you end clean.
I have read from the EI threads on the Café that the cleanup is really bad on EI (having to sign the coin yourself afterwards) |

This looks like the cleanup is superb , the coin can land on the spec's hands for them to keep , so far I don't see this company going for super misleading trailers so I'll trust what's seen on the demo and based on my understanding . I however don't mind about the less visual appearance of the signature , it happens in the spectator's closed fist with my closed fists , I guess that's strong enough . I was actually thinking that all these maybe possible with just a SansMinds sharpie though haha ... Just Maybe ...

What's not on the demo is what's the most important thing to consider just as it was with EI. Neither EI or IC show a full performance demo so we don't know what the "important/secret" steps are that will be needed to accomplish the effect.

I submitted a review of this on another thread, which actually may have been for a different effect with the same name. This thread is about Invisible Coin by Smagic so I’m posting the link to my review here: http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/viewt......orum=109

I have been thinking of putting it in an ebook I'm working on...maybe I should lol. I can pm a short performance video if anyone is interested. If people like it ill add it to the Ebook. I have a video on google drive from when I was submitting some stuff to a magic company. |

JonathanW, I’d be interested to see a performance of what you’ve come up with. Always interested to see what others are doing. If you post a link to it I’ll check it out.
Ceierry, I’m not familiar with the method of E-ink but based on the reviews I’ve seen it sounds like it is very similar to Invisible Coin in terms of the demo being misleading, and the practicality/weaknesses of the method making it a junk drawer purchase - just like IC was for me. That’s my take, anyway. Laffski |

I think you wrote your review on the wrong thread since if you read the actual effect being described in the thread linked by Laffski, it I volfes a card and a coin...not just two coins
