Hi Guys!

I need some extremely good impromptu coin routines that you can do with ordinary coins anywhere and anytime with spectators in all angles.

Please, recommend books, DVDs or standalone effects.

Hey Kjellstrom,

I'd recommend the obvious to you as far as ungaffed, off the cuff effects go:

• 3 Fly or any nice looking variation of coins across
• A nice spellbound routine always seems to go over well
• In-hand matrix is very nice and decent as far as angles go
• Copper & Silver effects (ungaffed, or using real coins, a C/S, and an e]) will always do well for you.

For ungaffed, impromtu stuff, Michael Rubinstein's material is very helpful. I just got an older tape of his that has some great stuff in it. "Knock Out Coin Magic", I believe it's called. Roth's video detailing dinner magic and bar stunts (ECMME vol 19??? I'm not sure on that) is very good as well. There is a lot of great material out there to choose from.

Best,
Mike

Mr Clean Three Coins Across

Matrix

I'm out. Those are the only ones I actually PERFORM (not that I'm saying the others I know aren't good enough to perform, just that these are the only ones that fit into my routines).

Dean Dill's No Extra's

Impromptu and killer:

Coins through table
Sympathetic coins

Chris Kenners O.O.S.P.C.A.

Coins to cup

Flurry

Greg Wilson's On the Spot video has some good stuff, Coins Across a Transposition and a neat quarter routine.

I've raved about Sankey's Revolutionary coin magic DVD before, and I'll say it again. It's chock full of all kinds of great routines. Worth twice the price.

Daffydoug,

I have Sankey's revolutionary vhs, Are there additional coin effects on the dvd that would make buying it worth my while.?

B.

Brian,

I am not knowledgable about the contents of the VHS version, so can't make a comparison

But looking at the back cover of my dvd, it says there is over 30 minutes of brand new material, so I'm assuming it means material that was not on the VHS version.

Whether that 30 extra minutes is worth your investment is something only you can decide.

For me, the entire dvd is priceless, considering the material it contains. The routines and moves and other subtleties are to me worth their weight in gold.

And on top of that, I got it for half price by purchasing from the Café' trade area.

So I'm a pretty happy camper.

Roths expert coin magic has lots, I like winged silver, coins to cup, hanging coins, one coin routine to jumbo production, et al

Sankey revolutionary coin magic- No Jacket required, Mr. Clean Coins Across, Messiah Vanish

and the obvious, Bobo has lots of great stuffy- though the table, sympathetic coins, pulse trick and and on - too much to choose from

I always perform Messiah Vanish by Jay Sankey, and it always gets good result!!!!!!!!!!OOOOOOOOOOh!

Take this one!

Hi Kjell,
I perform a trick with a borrowed coin which I claim will vanish and reappear thrice. on the 3rd time it vanishes completely and ends up under the spectators watch. For the method, watch Dan Harlan's impromtou magic videos.
Cheers

I would do any one coin type routine....I hear bill Goldman has a spellbound with one coin...

Roth's UCM or ETMCM.

He talks about the history and the technique of MANY sleights.
