The Tenkai Pennies
A sleight in which two coins are displayed in one hand, and one mysteriously vanishes when the other hand passes over them.
The Classic Palm
Holding a coin in the palm of your hand using muscle tension so that it is not visible from any angle. This allows for a coin to 'disappear' or for stealthy transfers between hands.
The Miser's Dream
A classic coin production where the magician pulls numerous coins seemingly out of thin air, often into a bucket or a hat.
The Finger Palm Vanish
A vanishing trick using a palm technique where the coin is held with the fingers rather than the palm, allowing for different sleight of hand moves.
The Edge Grip
A technique where the coin is held between the thumb and the other fingers by its edge, allowing for covert maneuvers and vanishes.
The Click Pass
A sleight of hand technique used to secretly pass one coin into a stack while making an audible 'click', providing the auditory illusion that no trickery has occurred.
The J.W. Grip
A unique palming method where a coin is held between the thumb and the first knuckle of the forefinger, facilitating certain kinds of coin manipulations.
The Coin Bite
The illusion where the magician appears to bite a piece off a coin and then blows it back on. The trick typically uses a folding coin gimmick.
The Dynamic Coin Flip
An advanced version of the coin flip technique where the coin is flipped high into the air and caught with precision.
The Matrix
Four coins are covered by playing cards and miraculously gather under one card. This effect combines sleight of hand with misdirection.
The Ramsay Subtlety
A technique used for coin vanishes and productions where the magician shows their hand empty when it actually contains a coin, named after magician John Ramsay.
The French Drop
The French Drop involves pretending to take a coin in one hand while secretly retaining it in the other. The hand that supposedly contains the coin is then shown empty, revealing that the coin has 'vanished'.
The Coin Flip
A flourish where the magician flips a coin over the fingers from front to back or vice versa. It showcases dexterity and can be used as a diversion.
The Coin Roll
The Coin Roll is the act of rolling a coin across the tops of the fingers in a continuous loop. It is both a trick and a skill of dexterity.
The Bobo Coin Vanish
Named after J.B. Bobo, this vanish utilizes a fake transfer of a coin from one hand to the other, followed by showing both hands empty.
The Shim Shell
A trick utilizing a 'shimmed' coin – a coin that has a small magnet or metallic shim inside – allowing it to stick to another object or be secretly attracted to a magnet.
The Coin Through Table
An effect where a coin appears to penetrate through a solid table top. The method can involve a false transfer or palming coupled with a distracting sound.
The Coin Through Hand
The magician appears to push a coin through their hand, using a technique similar to the coin through table.
The Spellbound Change
The magician shows a coin and visually changes it into another coin by rubbing it or waving a hand over it. This sleight of hand is achieved by palming one coin and revealing the other.
The Pendulum Coin Vanish
A vanish technique that uses the swinging motion of the hand to create the illusion of a coin disappearing mid-air.
