Name: <FONT SIZE="+2"><FONT COLOR="0000ff">Kangeroo Coins (Eddie Gibson)</FONT></FONT>
Price: £37.99
Type: Coins
Difficulty: 1
Performance time: 1 minute
Examinable: No
Reset Time: None you could carry on all day
What you get: 2 brass caps 2 gimicked coin sets plus other gimicked coin
Effect:
Two brass caps are clearly shown, one covers a uk pound, the other a penny. These caps are marked on the top by placing a pound on top of the cap containing the pound, and a penny on the other one. The magician can then cause the coins to SWAP PLACES simply by moving the markers on the top. As a finale, the penny marker can be swapped for a pound and the caps then are seen to both contain a UK pound!! No skill required to perform this precision made miracle.
Comments:
This is good it is a play on the three coin monte with two caps it is impresive and works so well close up this is recomended
Overall Rating: 9/10 (would be 10 if it was more examinable.

Just a tip here.
Use the £1 from your coin unique to mark where the £1 under the shell is and it will appear and dissapear depending on which way up you have the £1 on top.

I got this today & must admit to being a bit un-impressed & dissapointed. At least with the basic routine of show a two coins in two brass caps, & then make them switch sides.
I figured out how this was done before it arrived. Now for some reason I had thought this item was clean & full examinable before & after. The basic routine suggests you hand out one of the caps & the genuine coins before the routine. This immediatly aroused the suspicions of my 11 year old sone with "Why can't I look at the other cap?"
The routine is very quick, & now that I have it not very impressive.
There is scope however as the instruction sheet give another 5 routines using the apparetus.
Thus ends my thoughts on the kangeroo coins. If anyone has any other routines they'd like to share re these I'd love to hear & plagaurise
