Comments:
I love this my Dad thinks it is the most magical thing he has seen it is a crowd pleaser you look like a real slight of hand expert but do not need to be one of my clients at work said after watching it that he did not think he should shake my hand again

Overall Rating: 10/10

Yeah i love these too. if you press hard with your thumb they are very examable (buy them and you'll know what i mean)

has anyone seen the biteout coins in Uk format and if they're worth the money?

any comments would be great
fearno

Yep, you can get them from abrakazam.com for about 15 quid in 10p. More pricey than the American ones but less suspicious

The uk 10p is the best I have seen and the one at abrakazam actually looks like teeth marks I have one and it is better and less detectable than any other I have seen

we sell this trick at Marvin's Magic (where I work as a demonstrator, based in Hamleys toy store) and it's our most popular trick (we call it "Dynamic Coins") - it never fails to amaze lay-people! Although having said that, I saw this ages ago in another magic shop and as a magician saw through it straight away. Still very impressive though.

This is an absolute classic and was the first trick I ever bought. Without fail, everyone I have shown over the years has been astonished by this. If you add a few false slightly suspicious hand movements, It adds to the basic appearance of being a master of sleight of hand. I usually finish by palming a stack of 5 10p pieces from either a pocket or a hidden shelf on my performing table and throwing them to the table as a final confirmation that they were actually moved each time. This adds an extra edge to the performance and helps resist the minute examination afterwards to a mere casual look. This can be essential as they get worn.
When they wear, rub them a couple of times on some fine to medium sandpaper or wet&dry. This puts a very slight burr on them and stops any rattle.
