I've been laughing this morning at all the descriptions because I am those things!
Curtis - reaching for that Morgan dollar in the bowl required no thinking or regret, just a lot of soap My 5 yo daughter finds a coin and runs to me saying "Daddy, one of your favorite things." My wife marvels at the packages from all over the world I get which weigh next to nothing and when opened produce a round brown or silver disk of some sort. I practice my trumpet with coins palmed. I have tried to play the piano this way too! Joy!
The real magic is family!

1. Muscle pass with a nickel
2. Brought coins along with you on your honey moon 3. after a movie had to look for a coin in the rows below you 4. cramps..no not that kind..in your hand from practicing ...but most important when your consumers, friends and strangers at the store..say something like... show my friend that cool thing you did with a quarter..(even if I had been using franklins, liberty halves or a morgan.... or when you haven't been to a local meeting in a year and a magician comes up and says I heard about your work.... or when someone from Australia visits your town and says hey your that Doctor of Laughology Guy who does the coin stuff. or Hey Coin Guy is heard... or coin rolls with 3 coins on each hand.... or are not put off by a routine that says start with 6 coins classiced in your right hand 4 in finger .... in your left or can do a coin star with both hands...sending them both ways through your chest... and can perhaps most importantly can bring a smile with a simple (in a zen kind of way) french drop... ..and can entertain an audience of lay and / or magicians with coins... Harris can do can do they say a coin guy can do...hum along and make up your own lyrics... still 2 old to know everything...

Your Know your a Coin guy When Your In a Chinese Restarount Ordering food to go,
You set down to wait for it, and you see a big (10"-15") Chinese coin. And the frist thought in your mind is " Hay I Where could I get one of those" ( Just Happen today) |

You know you're a coin guy when you hop an airport bus to the parking lot - they ask for a shuttle pass and you do a coin move.

LOL Yea-Yea that's it

( WOW that long I must be geting old! ) I Was in a Car with Marlo And Bill Malone was Driveing us to the magic Round table. And Marlo said " You know Thay call me the Cardician! I was going to Call you the Coinjurer" That was One of the Happest days of my life! ( Now is that A coin guy or What! ) !!! |

You are a coin guy if your wife is constantly yelling at you for waking her up to the sound of jingling coins while practicing coin magic at midnight.
you are a coin guy if you have a different "exp sh.." coin set for different occasions (barber half set, walking liberty set, kennedy set, morgan set, Ike set, Chinese coin set, etc..... and you use them all.

You know you are a coin guy if... You carry a coin purse. Face it... The only other person that carries a coin purse is Grandma with her little green flat "football-shaped" rubber coin purse with a slit in it. .
You know how to make God laugh?........... Tell him your plans!!!

I think you should be able to do this:
-a copper silver transposition -coin roll -three fly -coins across/trough the table -a good retention vanish -a good french drop -click pass -muscle pass -some impromptu tricks -entertain people -your own one coin routine, I think it should be the goal for every coin magician to creat a good one. I am not a coin guy to make things clear |

David is correct. only a coin guy would carry multiple coin purses in his pocket to hold his the nongaffed and gaffed coins around.

- When you come on the Café to only look at post on coins 90% of the time.
- When you come up with creative ways to practice late at night when you have hard wood floors. For example, putting your laundry basket in front of your practice mirror, that way if you drop it'll be on clothes. - When you are miming coin moves while you are out running. - When you just dropped $500 down 3CF (Gotta know how to use it well too of course!) - When you meet other magicians at a convention and hear clad coin, that sound is like nails to a chalkboard to you. - When you know/do so much coin stuff that you start to forget some of your older card material because you haven't wrote them all down.
One for the money...., 2 for a pass..., 3 for a Fly..., and 4 for matrix!
