I recently came into possession of a Canadian silver dollar. These coins are slightly larger then a Candian Twonie, and a lot larger then a Loonie.

I have tried to think of a few routines that would use all three coins. I came up with a variation of the scotch and soda, where handing them the loonie and twonie and asking for the dollar (smaller one) back, they hand me the twonie and I say no, the dollar, then they hand me the silver dollar. The problem is the coin is too big to get away with this.

Any other ideas for a routine using three coins of different sizes?

How about a spellbound routine with a couple of shuttle passes thrown in for good measure, clean up with a sylvester pitch and then pitch and ditch.................

.................or maybe a simple coins across routine.

Depending on the size of the third coin
you might want to consider a splitting silver
type routine.

It is a spellbound type effect.
Ie large dollar to 2 half dollars to
4 quarters.(add 3 more of the smaller coins)

Ryan,
My No-Gimmick Scotch and Soda, which appeared in my column in the Linking Ring a few years back, uses three coins of different sizes and materials.
It works with coins from just about any country or a combination.
If you are, or anyone else is, interested in it, e-mail me and I'll be glad to send you the routine and handling as it appeared in the column.
cheers,
Peter Marucci
