£2 - 50p Coin

Postby Antera » Aug 14th, '11, 17:19



£2 / 50p Coin

I just had one of these made and it fries and kills .

The fact that the 50p has a non round edge makes this impossible to the spec. I got mine from International .. Marko knows a guy that makes them. It can be examined as well but it seems so incredible that they cant guess the method for want of trying

The way i use this is to put both coins in a small clear container and the spec cups there hands over it and turn it upside down. One then equivoque the coin to be chosen and when they look in the box... its gone
( well one of them)

Fantastic and i would not ever be without this bu**er.

WOW

10 out of 10

Yep I got this one from International, they have a whole box full of different combinations, but as you mentioned the idea of a non round coin and a round one is a great one.

Marko who works there uses it in his card routine where it is wasted. Why he does this i have no idea as the coin effect is confused and diluted .. a bit like Marko i suppose

keep it simple

Far to many guys have complex routines which are confusing. Some other clown in there showed me a poker routine and believe me it was the worst demo i ever saw.. i had to remember around 4 cards and then add this and subtract that. No wonder some people dont like card tricks

I like the sound of these coins though don't quite understand what they are/do.


I'll try to remember mine tomorrow.

I should add that mine isn't the £2/50p.
