Hi there...
I'm from Germany, and I don't really like to do my coin magic with Euros. Does anyone have an idea where to get silver dollars and half dollars? I only found coin collectors offering coins for about 30 bucks (and more). Anybody? |

Cetchmoh,
Go to Ebay and so a search for "silver dollar circulated". That will get you worn coins that are good for magic and bad for collectors so the price is low near silver bullion prices. Figure $11.00-12.00 US for a Morgan silver dollar which is near melt down price as a good buy. The dates should be irrelevant to you. Larry |

Yup - I always get mine from eBay too. There are some great bargains to be had there.
I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I only lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three. Elayne Boosler

If you got small hands you might just want to get half dollars cause goshman pinch is hard for me to hide when I use silver dollars.

You can buy the coins from any magic shop,
but I usually get mine from a local coin dealer. Half dollers cost me around a pound, and dollers two which seems less than quoted above, but of course I have to take what I can get . |
