although eddie gibson's wonderul coin unique has been with us for some time now, and yes most of us can perform the same effects using knuckle crunching J.B.Bobo methods, i recently dusted mine off, and wondered if anyone out there had any original thoughts on the gimmick.

i was inspired to post this question after reading 'Unique prediction' in Waye Dobsons 'final cut' booklet. this trick involves the spectator choosing from 1p £1 and 50p coins, and the coin unique is used as your prediction of their choice. I think explaining further would constitute a breach of the rules, but im sure many of you will know the method involved.

i am particularly interested in effects which logically explain the necessity of having both £1 & 1p involved, a friend reccommended this website due to the high level of creativity amongst members, so having just joined i thought this would be an interesting topic of discussion.

what miracles do you work with this 'unique' pound and penny?

a one pound and a penny are put in a small flash envelope and a second envelope is shown empty and sealed.
the first envelope is burnt and in a flash the pound falls into the tray, the second envelope is candled and a the shape of a penny is seen in the second envelope.

nice effect! any excuse to get the flash paper out is is more than welcome. id love to hear more ideas, im sure everyone has a pet-effect with this item.

thanks for the quick reply magicdiscoman
