Effect just in case someone doesn't know: Displayed by the performer is a US Kennedy half dollar and a Mexican centavo. In the fairest way possible, the performer places both coins inside of the spectators hand and has them place their hand behind their back. The performer asks for the larger coin, the half dollar, first. Then he asks for the smaller coin, the centavo, but it has magically transformed into a quarter. The centavo could appear elsewhere.
When I opened up the packaging, the coins were together and I was surprised at how great it looked. Part of the magic of this effect is the fact that it happens in the spectator's hands AND the coins can be examined to their heart's content. The spectator has no real chance of discovering the secret. It is finely machined. S&S is a wonderful effect that is simple to do but is just as impossible as more elaborate effects. A few VERY minor complaints: the coin faces don't line up, which is just an adjustment to make in performance. The sound and feel of the half dollar are different. But again, minor complaints that will likely not come up during performance. 4.5/5 stars. |
