For me this is one GREAT free magic coin trick! Very clean, very
visual, simply a stunning coin effect. The beauty of this trick is it
is performed at a glass table. Spectators have a totally unobstructed
view at all times. Once you learn the effect I am sure you will love it!
THE EFFECT:
You place a coin (can be borrowed) on the table. You tap the coin under
and over the table to prove both the table and coin are solid. You
place one hand above the table and one hand below it.
The
hand above the table covers the coin momentarily and with a slow soft
rubbing motion the hand is removed to reveal the coin has penetrated
through the table and into your hand below it!
THE SECRET: For this free magic coin trick you are going to need two coins that are attracted to a magnet (or washers) and a PK Ring (Magnetic Ring). These usually come in either gold or silver colours and are extremely strong magnets. By far the best PK magnets are the Wizard PK Rings. That is exactly the one I have in the performance and tutorial videos.
Now these rings are very versatile. You can perform many, many different effects only limited by your imagination.Pretty cool free magic coin trick hey? Right first you need to go get your Wizard PK Ring, I'll wait right here....Got it? Good, then we will begin!
Place
the ring on the finger you feel most comfortable with. It should be a
nice snug fit. The beauty of these rings is that they look just like
any other normal ring. However you have a powerful magnet at your
disposal!
Palm the first coin in your curled
fingers of your hand, between your forth and pinky fingers. Hold the
second coin in plain view at the finger tips of the same hand.
Spectators should only be aware of one coin through out the whole trick.
Tap
the coin on and under the table a few times to show the coin and table
are both solid. Now leave the coin on the table and bring the hand with
the hidden coin in below the table. Place the hand with the PK ring. flat on the table and secretly let the coin attract to the magnet from under the table.
TIP: Be careful at this point not to make a 'clink' sound as the coin sticks under the table, practice this bit!
When the coin has stuck to the underside of the table you can move your hand around quite freely and the coin will stay. DO NOT
lift your hand off the table or the coin will drop! Move your hand
(with the ring and coin) over the coin on the table. At the same time
your other hand reaches up under the table, kind of sandwiching the
glass.
Now let the magnet pick up the coin on the
table, while making a rubbing motion. At the exact same time the hand
under the table needs to hold the coin that the magnet was holding.
Lift the hand above the table away and show the coin has penetrated
right through the glass!
TIP:
Try and make sure that the two coins are facing the same way up when
performing the trick. For example both heads or tails up. Otherwise a
keen spectator may notice it change. |
