Dinnertable Coin Magic
- Coins Through Table #1 – A classic of magic! Four coins travel one at a time right through a solid tabletop.
- Coins Through Table #2 – In this version, four coins penetrate the tabletop at the same time. A startling visual illusion.
- Coins To Cup – Coins travel one at a time from the performer’s hand to a coffee mug held in the other hand.
- Coin & Glass Through Table – The classic with a Roth twist. A coin is covered by a napkin-wrapped glass as the performer attempts to make the coin pass through the table. However, the glass penetrates the tabletop, taking the coin with it.
- Weeping Coin – The performer squeezes water out of a solid silver coin and immediately hands it out for examination. David includes a nice Michael Skinner finesse that makes this even more magical.
- Napkin Ring Coin Vanish – A seldom-seem, baffling coin vanish right from the repertoire of T. Nelson Downs.
- Dime In Sugar Packet – a borrowed dime vanishes, only to be found sealed in a sugar packet that was in plain sight all the time. A reputation maker!
- Cold Coin – The performer changes an exotic coin into an American half-dollar, claiming that it changed places with a coin in Tibet. To prove the claim, the coin is dropped into a spectator’s hand and is discovered to be ice cold! A tactile coin effect that your audiences will never forget.
- Napkin Coin Vanish – A clean and simple vanish of a coin that has withstood the test of time.
- Chanin’s Coin Production – The performer produces a continuous stream of half-dollars from a napkin, ending with the production of a giant coin. A delightful routine that’s surprisingly easy to do!
- Vanishing Dime In Shot Glass (performance only) – A dime vanishes from underneath an overturned shot glass and reappears inside in a most mysterious way.
- Free & Unlimited Coinage Of Silver – Coins, coins everywhere! The performer discovers a continuous supply of half-dollars under various articles – salt and pepper shakers, plates, glasses, etc.
- Vanishing Coin In Water Glass – A classic that still stuns audiences! A coin held under a handkerchief is dropped into a glass of water by a spectator…and vanishes without a trace!
