Some of the moves are particularly nice (the last one is by far my favorite - wonderful), some a little bit less because I almost always roll up my sleeves when performing magic.
I hope there is an option with download only. I don't want the coins. Not that they aren't nice or whatever, but all of my gimmicks are in english penny and half dollar format, and I use them all the time and switch them for normal coins. |

On May 29, 2017, mh1001 Hey guys. Thanks for the interest ! I really have no intention of releasing a download only. I really want all my ideas to have a physical presence on the planet. I'm not a fan of download only content. I always feel something is missing and is soon forgotten with digital media. . But that being said. This is does have a download component and it isn't like anything you've experienced before. The new format is called DAVE and you can read all about it on the site. As far as the coins. You get a half dollar and dollar size both ! so You can use them in existing routines! I've worked really hard to have my high standards in quality and keep a very affordable price for a new teaching format that is much more than just a download and a bit pricey to develope. Maybe a little more expensive this way. But you will get your money's worth in the teaching. The coins are a bonus. Send any questions my way. I'm really excited to share. Thank you Karl M. For starting this thread.

I'm looking forward to checking this out! I just saw Circus 1903 this past weekend. Now thinking of a coin and box routine about caged animals escaping. Jeff... can we order extra coins?

Hey Craig. Good question. Right now it is just the two coins. The focus of the project is the teaching video and teaching format. The coins are a bonus item. But if there is demand I will change that up with an option in the future. If you join my mailing list on the web page I have a promo code right now that I will give you a free coin from my extra inventory. But this isn't going to last much longer. Sign up form is at bottom of my copelandcoins.com site.

Haven't got to watch the video yet but I received my package today and it is a beautiful presentation and the coins are perfect. Definitely going to use them.
I look forward to trying the D.A.V.E system |

Spent last night watching the video, finishing it off this morning.
There is a lot of material on there; so far the Mexi-Melt is my favorite! Loving the D.A.V.E System, not having to constantly go back in the video to see the moves again really helps. This is the first use of the D.A.V.E System so it is still in its infancy and could use a couple features that I am sure will be added over time, I look forward to seeing how it progresses; I hope more release's come out in this kind of format. |

Just checked my tracking on FB Messenger (that was a cool way to do it, a first for me anyway. I usually have to go to the USPS website and type a bunch of numbers)
I should have it in Tomorrows mail. I look forward to not only the effect and the coins, but I am really interested in this new learning format "D.A.V.E." It really looks interesting and I like trying out new technology. I will certainly post my thoughts on all - The Coins, The Routine and the New Learning Format, after I get my hands on them and have some time to watch it all. I will state that, if it is ANYTHING like the quality of his previous releases, "Traveler" and "BlackBird", I will be very happy. Both releases were top notch in my opinion. Although I can see why some magi would not benefit from or use "BlackBird" as it is a device to help with "Sleeving" (and not everyone does that) but... I do not understand why any "coin guy" (beginner to expert), does not own a "Traveler". The "Traveler" leather Coin wallet / leather folding coin purse (however you want to look at it). Not only is it a simple way to carry your coins, there is a built in "gimmick" you can use or not use and some very strong effects taught on the video. They are available at several magic dealers or direct from the creator at http://copelandmagic.com/

I got the Tresor set today. I LOVE IT! the coins are nice one is half size one is dollar size plus the weights are perfect on each.
D.A.V.E. - The DAVE system is pretty cool (but still in its infancy) I would liken it to a really well made PowerPoint Presentation. Your video is center screen with relevant text and current credits on either side (he also credits others on the video). Photos that will be referenced fit nicely across the top of the screen. Page numbers and quick click arrows are across the bottom. The video will tell you when to click for next page. At the beginning of the left text box on each page there is also a reference to the timeline where this page started. Video - The video utilizes the latest "JWPlayer" format and is top quality. Coming in at an hour and forty mins long, taught VERY Well (as all of his effects released so far have been) and the photos from other angles are across the top of the screen to lessen rewinding if you drop a coin or don't quite understand the finger placement he talks about. Just look up and it is there. After briefly introducing the new D.A.V.E. format, It starts with some history and theory as well as around 3 beginner sleights followed by 4 intermediate and then 4 advanced sleights. A very wide range for all skill levels. Next up is a section called "More Sleights" (3 more) then 3 Color Changes and 3 routines. *** and, you can download the video only (without the DAVE stuff to view offline). Just log in. then scroll down to bottom and look at the last right hand column. Put your mouse over the words "Download Video" the right click and "save as" to download. The material is a MASTERCLASS on the French Drop. Done poorly by so many, he teaches the way it is "supposed" to be done and then goes off with his (and others) fantastic variations and original effects using them. The material covered is all the way from easy beginner to hard core knuckle busting. There truly is something for everyone here. The Coins - You receive a nice booklet with the two coins displayed (I have seen booklets like this for many coin sets at my local coin shop) and you could just use it to display your coins if you wish. The coins are both the same (heads/tails) being a tiger and an orangutan. They are endangered so they were put on the coins to bring attention to the fact they may one day "vanish" from our planet. They are very well made, tarnish resistant, bright RB color rating and have reeded edges (Milled). specs are almost spot on with a Morgan Dollar and a Walking Liberty Half: Dollar - 37.94mm (+/-.02mm) diameter. 2.72mm (+/-.10mm) thick. 24g weight half - 29.97mm (+/-.02mm) diameter. 2.24mm (+/-.02mm) thick. 12g weight They both feel great in the hands right out of the box with no difference to the coins I currently use. The contrast is perfect, not to shiney and not a dark brown where it may not even be noticed. A lot of thought went into these as he discusses in the video. I do own two previous releases by Jeff Copeland - BrotherJeffrey here on the Café. "BlackBird" and "Traveler" (coin wallet/folding purse) and if you are familiar with these, you will know the quality of his teaching. I liken it to the way Gregory Wilson teaches. Powerful, time and audience tested material and clear and concise teaching with no stone left un-turned plus plenty of "bonus" info and proper crediting of others. He also makes reference to both products during different parts of the video. (Even though this is a review for "Tresor", you won't go wrong with either of the other two products also - put them on your short list Whatever number of "star rating" you want to go by, I give it 100% +. It is a great buy for any level coin magician and comes with a couple nice coins for color changes. It is also Pure Sleight of Hand stuff so you don't need to invest in fancy gimmick coins to make powerful magic. Grab this up, it is well worth it.

Thanks PD
Can you (or anyone else) say a little more about the routines taught? |

I use the Traveler, but this can be adapted to any coin purse. It's a visual out of the box thinking "quick change" routine. 2. Smooth Production: A stellar barehanded, four coin production using a bunch of the moves you learn in the project. A hyper visual way to get your coins into view, setting up your favorite four coin routine (or could adapt for 3 coins I guess). 3. Smooth Coin: A one coin routine using almost every sleight taught in the project, including a kicker color change and optional squeaky clean complete vanish at the end! A note: On the second two routines, I use Blackbird to produce the coins. What can I say, I'm very happy with Blackbird and IMO it is the best available solution for barehanded productions, so I use it now in all my thinking. But if you don't have a set of Birds and I teach and note other ways to do the routines if you do not have them. I think this is only fair. Obviously, in coin magic, you don't have to start with barehands and before Blackbird, many people did not, so just to be crystal clear, you do not have to purchase anything other than Tresor to perform anything taught on Tresor. I hope that helps, the routines are fun and if you've paid attention to the material taught are quick to pick up for the most part.

You might want to PM BrotherJeffrey and ask him. Sorry I didn't get back with an answer sooner puggo, I was re-watching them in hopes of explaining them better but I certainly can't do any better than the creator himself - BrotherJeffrey. Really, any of these routines can be done using an English Penny (if you are a half dollar guy) or a copper round the size of a Morgan Dollar (which are becoming more and more popular and attainable). The included coins are a "bonus" or a nice conversation piece. The video even has a small chapter on the background and design of this coin, same coin - two sizes. Admittedly, I too like shiny new toys and am enjoying using these coins (especially since the specs are spot on with real coins) Now that I have watched it a few times and let the pure "coolness" of the DAVE system sink in, I am getting to the meat and bones of the sleights. Wow, I never would have thought there would be so many "magical ways" to execute a French Drop (or that I had been doing it "badly" for lack of a better word) I already see improvements and have not even really got down to the more advanced stuff yet. Anyone else have this yet? I see several folks on the FaceBook group posting that theirs has arrived even as far as the Netherlands. Would like to see other thoughts on this.

His site loaded a little slow (it has a lot of high-quality images) but it loaded for me. It may have been due to a surge of use, he just started selling coins https://shop.copelandcoins.com/collections/silver
