Check this coin out looks really weird, may be good for an effect. Normal silver coin but with kennedys head in colour

That's a pretty scary looking coin Chris!
Best, Mike |

There might be a routine here somewhere in conjunction with the old "Head Out" effect by Steve Dushek (I think it's his).
This is the cs effect where Kennedy's head disappears from the half dollar (after a couple of changes to an English Penny)...the watchers have begun to tip to the idea that you may be using a double-sided coin and when you turn it around it is just a "silver" half, but there's a hole through the coin where the head was; the clean-up is you remove the missing head from your pocket. Not bad............... |

That would be a great coin to have in my collection...just in case I do find a use for it in my magic. There is probably a lot you could do with it.

Jeez, that's creepy.
Suppose you change a half dollar to this, and when they look back at you, your head is silver! Okay, how's about just your eyes?
Is THAT a PALMS OF STEEL 5 Banner I see? YARRRRGH! Please visit The Magic Bakery

If you can find a double struck half....that would be great as well. Even creepier than the colored one.

I guess you could have a scanario of "I went to a seance and they tried contacting JFK we couldn't get hold of him but the weirdest thing happened to my half dollar coin" Do a spell bound change back to a normal coin saying that it only ever lasts momentarily but you can't help but feel he's trying to get a message to you. Then you could say that the other weird thing is that you found a live bullet shortly afterwards and wonder if it has something to do with JFK....perform bullet catch and freak the spectators out
