Whats that you're supposed to be putting on the back on your left hand just before you make the coin appear?

It's pretty good, but that seems like a superfluous move.
That said, the angles aren't great and you can see the coin drop.

Still not bad though

You wont find much better anywhere and it's nothing - a rigmarole with a few bits of paper and lots of spiel. That is Mentalism

As always that was good.

I suppose with patter you would say something to do with invisible coins. I like it.

Cheers,

Perhaps because this video lacked patter and therefore a great deal of misdirection, but I thought this production was far to obvious. Being a cardie I cant offer much advice only recently delving into bobo's wonders, but i think to pull this off successfully would need a great deal of misdirection.

I liked it a lot. Well done Mog. You've managed to stump me again.

Thanks,

mog the load was good but you need to do a bit more miming with the taking of the invisible coin spend a second to point to it, then try tapping it edgewise on the hand then push it through the back of the hand.

i realise it was just a filler and its not a critasism as i thought the wand / pen misdirection was first rate.
two other loads to consider:-
1) pass the pen through the hand.
2) a reverse of the strike vanish, ballsy but get great reactions. :D
