The quarter trick.

Does anybody know of that trick where the guy has a quarter and he sort of moves it around and controls it with his knuckles. You see it a lot in gangster movies. If anybody can post any links or anything to help me learn how to do it it would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou in advance.

You certainly wont find anybody on this website that will reveal a magic secret

That is not a magic secret, it is a coin flourish. It is called the coin roll. You will find it in many magic books that have coin sections. The book 'close-up magic' by N.einhorn has it. The DVD JEFF MC BRIDE'S WORLD CLASS MANIPULATION Vol 1 has it.

http://coinmanipulation.com/ is a good site if you want to learn coin flourishes..or well, they show you how it should be done, then they aren't soo good at teaching it...
