Here is my first video on here in which i am performing my Coin Unique. I was just wondering if you guys had any ideas on how i could make it smoother or maybe look a little bit more natural? All comments are good comments
, even the bad ones :D

Cheers

Sam

Nothing wrong technically but I hope you don't perform it in real-life without there being some kind of reason for the other coin being there. As it is, and with the suggestion that the way you handle the coin at the end carries, there's really not much magic.

When performing in real life i add a story of the pound coin being my grandma's and the penny being my grandad's. As I'm showing the coins i tell of how they always use to argue until one day (Begin to cover coins up) My grandma was the death of him, to which i reveal the penny has vanished. I then tell of how my grandma couldn't live without my grandad and peform the drop coin vanish, to which i move onto my next trick.

Looked nice.

I sometimes start with four or five pennies depending on the number of specs. Rub the coins and hand one out for a spec to hold. Rub the coins and hand one out to another spec until you reduce down to one.

That's the one that I then vanish and just say that my generousity only goes so far.
