yeah exact same thing happened to me.
was back in the shop where i bought the can a couple of days later and noticed all his cans were the same so maybe he imports them all or something.
can use 20p but obviously the bigger the coin the more impressive the effect, unless of course it doesnt work at all. doh
delude i palmed the 10p and left as a coin dissapear. not all that impressive after all the build up and can manouvering. luckily the coin hadnt been signed as i had no marker with me, that would have looked very odd. erm can you just sign this coin. and now its gone. thank you

Just a few questions.
I'm new to magic, but this trick looks amazing and I wouldn't mind trying it. Am I likely to find it very difficult?
Also, can it be done with a coke can?

Yes - because it depends what coin you use. Here in the UK, diet coke cans and 10ps work a real treat, for various reasons.

Blapsing Beard and cybron... maybe wanting to rethink your wording?
Could be classifed as exposure!
Sorry guys!

Sorry to go all "mod" on you lol, but I think it tipped the method somewhat

A) My son wants to get this, hes 12, but i need to know before he wastes his money, if a small for his age 12 year old boy could do it. nothing to do with skill, but size of hands?
B) Does a U.S coke can and quarter or penny/dime/nickel work?

I would say that if your son can hold the can quite comfortably in one hand, then he should be ok. It may be a little more tricky than normal, due to the size of his hands, but overall I would guess that he should be able to learn it
Being from the UK I can't comment on US coins soz

but I'm sure there's other people here who can help

QUESTION:
If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??

Yes, your son more than likely will be able to do it. Im from the US and all the coins that you mentioned work for it with only one exception. One of the coins you mentioned only works with a certain brand of cans. But this is not a big deal at all because it can easily be worked around.
hope this helps

[edited by mods. You are very clever Randylahey - 80%. that's good you are my hero. what a clever person you are. I wish I was as clever as you]
why dont i buy the video you ask? because i dont have a credit card, so dont come at me with "why dont you just go and buy the dvd?" also it takes 2 weeks to ship, and i cant wait that long, i will have it figured out by then.
[edited some more. No. Please don't ask again. It offends us]
Also, this is your second inappropriate post - check the rules please.
