Many Thanks!

Many based on using the TUC, mostly because of crippled hands and ability to toss the gaff around.

All transportation effects followed by physical changes such as C/S.

For me, it was always important to be able to produce the same result in several ways because of repeat audiences.

Karate coin always goes over well for me. I actually use it instead of having the last coin travel in my coins across. I will say "that is three that have traveled; one left and that is done "kung fu" style. I then blow it off as a joke and show the last coin has traveled to my other hand. It's a silly idea but it seems to work for me.

I do not do this one myself but I have seen a video where a guy did a repeat jumbo coin to pocket that killed. Maybe someone else will know who I mean. (I think the guy was busking on a beachfront in the vid I saw).

My two favorites are
Spellbound- non-gimmicked
Coins across- gimmicked

One of my openers was "Dead Kennedys," from "As the Crow Flies" (available at lybrary.com).

It was a gimmicked version of gadabout coins with comedy patter.

I do a routine that begins as a quick 3 Fly, then immediately segues into my modified version of Garrett Thomas's Imagnation Coins.
The 3 Fly is a quick visual opener that is a good way of introducing myself and also allows me to endear myself into their good graces without yet asking anything of them or demanding their participation in any way.
The next phase involves more direct involvement and has magic happening in their own hands.
It's also modular so I can wrap it up quickly because sometimes you happen upon a group that is initially gracious out of politeness, but you can quickly tell that they are distracted and are in the middle of a meeting or an important discussion or whatever the case may be.

FYI, I use Morgan's when performing this routine.

Here's my fav.... Four coin production, coins across, coins vanish concluding with jumbo production. Sometimes I add a quick spellbound at the end too. Hope you like it guys.

It is nice to see a routine rather than a "skill snippet." Much to like here as noted before. You deserve the reaction you got.

One small "nit pick" -- you use a phrase like, "four coins, no more" might suggest the possibility of an extra coin that would never have occurred to the spectator.

Having such phrases available in case of detected skepticism makes sense, but here she is with you all the way.

Maybe something like, "we are limited to the magic only four coins can provide."

but, you are there "at the moment" and follow your intuition -- maybe shooting a video is the limitation.

Shell coins across- in the spectator's hands
Elbow, Knee, and Neck- I don't know many guys using it, but I've been using it for years and it's great!
