Er, bump - guys, I'd much appreciate if you could take a look at this because I can't decide whether it's a very cool trick or something that'd been done a thousand times before and that I'd be a fool to buy...!

Farlsborough, I just had a look at that site and the trick does look very good indeed. I was truly baffled for a minute then I had a Eureka! moment and ran off and grabbed a bottle and recreated it within 5 minutes. If the technique he uses is the same as I came up with it's a good trick, 5 second set up if you've got the necessaries handy and you can even show the bottle first if you're careful and they don't handle it. You have to cut the bottle open to remove the coin too. The actual penetration as he does it is brilliant, but I'm sure most people could do it to the same standard after an hour or so's practise. Having said that I might be completely wrong and I might have just invented my own coin in bottle! I don't know of any other tricks of this nature that share the same technique, could anyone else shed any light?

Just to come back to this - I have worked it out after a few watches, but it's still a good'un! Very quick setup as you say; and very cheeky use of the marking of the coin, getting it to work for you for a change...!

Coin to Bottle...You could just do Infusion from Ellusionist...I mean...it's completely impromtu...Everything can be borrowed and examined before and after the trick.

Personally I think infusion isnt worth buying. Its too easy to figure out and doesnt look very effective to me.. thats just my opinion though

Just out of curiousity, which would be better for a coin in bottle effect? A single fold coin or a double fold coin?
