Just bend them with plyers and do a simple coin switch.

Banacheck gives excellent insight into coin bending in his fourth dvd in his series.

greedoniz has a boa for sale in the Sales area?

i use the superman bender actually, nice and smooth and lasts for ages...

you can use it as an effect (it's been reviewed) or just as a device...

i personally mark a few with an X before i bend for an added convincer, and keep a small range of dates too...

2ps and 10ps for me...

I would strongly suggest that you don't get Silver Shifter.

Nope - it's a common misconception; whilst defacing notes in the UK is still technically illegal, the same doesn't apply to coins these days.
