I recently purchased Cresey's money mouth coils (I use rainbow coils during my kids show) - I was wondering if other people have used the money coils and what routines they've used.

I bought the money coils from him at the last SAM convention, but I probably won't use them for kids. Kids relate to colors and the rainbow coils are ideal for kidshows. The money ones would be better for coin-purse productions in closeup/adult situations I think.

Andini,

Great idea about producing the money coils from a coin purse or frame.

How about using one as a climax for a miser's dream routine. You could do the usual stream of coins from a kid's nose and then produce the mouth coil from your mouth, or out of the kid's nose if you don't like using coils out of your mouth.

Another possibility is as a climax for a six bill repeat effect. Now there is a routine that really needs a climax anyhow. What could be better than a stream of bills from a mouth coil?

New question - how are you "stealing" the coil? I'm trying to come up with a way to have it on me (sort of like a coin clip) to get it. Any ideas?

Safty pin and a large paper clip (not one of those monster ones but a regular lage one) and it just dangles under the coat until needed. You can just insert the clip into the coil, don't really need to clip on but you can.

When I do the miser's dream, I pull the coil from the back of his neck (shirt Tag)

I bought some more when I was at the S.A.M. Convention in Boston.

They are useful in my close up or stage coin routines.

As was mentioned above they don't have to come out of your mouth. (Though yes I do use them there...

That's putting money where my mouth is.....

While in Boston, I also go some money throw coils from Mr. Cresey.


Be safe, well and creative.
