Hey guys, I'm looking for the correct "Half-dollar" that "works" with Nick Einhorns cork.
Roy Kueppers does not. Penguin doesn't call me back. I really don't want to buy/return coins until I find the right one. anyone out there know? Thanks! AJ |

Try Todd Lassen. He's really hard to get a hold of and it's a long wait but it's well worth it. Best way I've found is calling him

Thanks. Still like to hear from anyone that has this and can tell me yeah...the Johnson works
or the Tango etc....I found that quarters are too small and slippery :-( |

Roy keuppers sells double fold for coin in bottle. I use a quarter with an extra band.

Mines a dbl but its still 2 big.
The dbl band might work. Thanks😊 |

I checked with Vanishing Inc. From what they told me was any double fold should work. I don't have the cork, so I can only go with what they said.

Well, the Roy Keuppers double fold is definitely too wide. (In half dollar)
So I'm hoping someone will jump in and say so and so works with this cork😊 |

Ok, I finally got down to my local magic shop (2 1/2 hours away)
Tried a Tango half and some no name coin and still won't work With the cork😕 |

Hollow the cork out a bit further

I use a Tango and it works fine. When it's folded, one end is more narrow than the other, you just have to insert it into the cork on the the more narrow end. Also, it is going to stick out of the cork a little bit.

Mandy..Theres not much cork wall left to work with,
Aaron...I was just in Daves Killer Magic in Vancouver and we tried a Tango there. couldn't fit wither side into this thing :-( So maybe I got a messed up one. |

AJ,
Are you "Z" folding the coin or folding it like a triangle? I believe on his ATT Lecture Nick uses a internal system tango half dollar and z folds it.

I also have the Tango half and it don't fit mine as well. I think I will return the Unicorn.

Hey,
Has anyone tried with euros ? Nick Einhorn advises double-folding coin but I just find simple folding coin..... |
