Product: Chinese Bit (by Eddie Gibson)

Type: Coin transpositions

Price: £40.00 (when available)

Where: Alakazam or Abrakazam

Difficulty: 2/5 (No skill required)

Performance time: 120 sec

Examinable: Before and after performance

Reset: Instant

Rating: 9/10

What you get:
A chinese coin, A genuine half dollar, an old English penny and a gimmicked coin plus very detailed performance instructions.

Effect:
Show three coins and allow the spectator to inspect them so that they may easily identify them as you perform.
Test the spectators ability to remember the coins by removing one at a time (first the Chinese coin, then the half dollar), of course
they get these correctly.
Then step up the pace and remove the half dollar and place into the right hand, close both hands and ask where each coin is.
Mirraculously the half dollar is back in your left hand but the right hand contains the old English penny and the chinese coin.
These transpositions continue on for another four performances when finaly you hand out the coins for inspection.

Comments:
No sleights are required, but this will make you look like a master of coin magic.
This is a truly remarkable set, and one I would highly reccomend, the coins and gimmicks are of the highest
quality (as you'd expect from Eddie Gibson).

I have recently purchased the Chinese Bit (Eddie Gibson) and am struggling with making the use of my pocket convincing. I've not performed the trick for anyone yet since I'm concerned that the first reaction will be 'let me look in your pocket'!! Any ideas how to get round this?

Cheers

Ive just noticed that you have so far made 3 posts, each one being exactly the same, in 3 DIFFERENT topics, maybe you could nip over to the introduction page and tell us about yourself.
