I no longer have a set.

If you are a DIY kinda guy one could get six C/S coins and drill an X and O pattern of holes.
That would work fine.

The initial set was hand cut.
I suspect someone out there has a set but the price is dear.

Every now and then, one shows up on Ebay ( I found one a couple of years ago). Also, Mike Rose had one on his Hard to Find magic website.

Someone is selling a Sterling-made set of X and O coins just now in the For Sale section of the Café: https://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/view......forum=76

You need 50 posts before you can access that section, and it seems you don’t yet have that many posts. I do, so I’ll reach out to the seller on your behalf, and suggest he get in touch with you.

Not positive it’s what you’re looking for, gaff wise, but it might be. Worth asking him for more details, at least. His name is Steve Thomas. You can reach out to him yourself via PM at https://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/pm_new.php?to_id=34#menu

Hope it’s what you’re looking for. You’ve been kind in sharing your own coin magic downloads for free with everyone, so happy to try to help.

I guess there's no effect; it's just a cute collector's item?

One can also find tic-tc-toe pieces in metal, glass or wood - about the size of silver dollar, but 1/4 thick.

These are harder to handle than coins, perhaps (possibly different sleights), but the impact is great.

I had some metal pieces that another magician coveted, so I sold them for twice what I paid at a thrift store.

So, if you like the visual effect and have large hands ...

Interesting, but that would be a different effect... more of a simple object transposition?
The "X" objects trade places with the "O" objects... vs with Hugs and Kisses, the halves and pennies stay in place but the X and O _holes_ move -- or the halves and pennies switch places but the holes stay in place..... I forget which way at the moment.
