Also, people don't just buy a 'move' they want a routine.
It's great that you're thinking about magic, and coming up with ideas, even if people have come up with them before, that's fine - but you won't get rich, just from making up a few moves.

Also if you do make something amazing (a routine!), why would you want to let it go so soon?
I have routines that are mine, and I am keeping them for myself, not because I'm selfish, but because I've put a lot of work into them. I will release them when the time is right, but not yet.

I think you might want to spend some more time in magic before going this route if you want to be successful about it.

I can only help you out by being brutally honest with you. Nobody will pay money to you for telling them how to perform that. Chances are that even if it's not already published in somebody's lecture notes there are likely to be a large number of people out there who have toyed with that idea only to discard it as being impractical or less impressive/deceiving than many other items in their repretoire.

Your enthusiasm is keen, just slightly misguided.

Im afraid that the 'Finding a Card with a Coin' effect is part of a published routine called 'Now Cut That Out' by David Williamson.

Ive just realised there are 2 'finding a card with a coin' effects on your site. I was refering to the first one which is a part of the David Williamson effect I mentioned. The second one (with the charlier cut) I havent seen before, and could be original - although I couldnt say for certain. I have seen something similar with a card, but not a coin.

frk means that it is very obvious from the very first instant that you have put a coin into the deck.

I am not trying to be harsh here but you really do need to study a heck of a lot more before you should even be thinking of trying to sell any of "your" tricks, because nothing you have uploaded is what can even be loosely described as "original" Aside from the fact that even you have not spent a great deal of time perfecting the handling, would be enough to tell people that you have not thought this through at all You are eager, and this is good, but you need to understand the difference between "eager to learn" and "novice practitioner", as at the moment you are displaying yourself as only in the second category.
