Coin of the Realm

Post by Arctic Allan » Tue Jan 20, 2015 4:57 pm

So, I was home with my daughter today, she was feeling sick and I happened to have some of my magic out. Being a Tenyo Fan, the Tenyo-Like threads are my favorite to read so I had to show her my favorite Tenyo-Like trick that I've had for about 13yrs, Coin of the Realm! Its been a few years since I've shown this one, part of the gimmick has malfunctioned :cry: so I have to be very careful with it. It is very easy to perform and when handed out for inspection is an eye roller, only once, maybe, was I was almost picked off.

I searched the threads and Simon commented on The Coin of the Realm viewtopic.php?f=12&t=221&p=2599&hilit=c ... ealm#p2599 but not sure if he was referring to the same one I have.

When buying The Coin of the Realm the price will vary huge here are two links showing that http://www.powellmagic.com/shop/index.p ... duct_id=49 and http://www.topsmagic.com/p27675/Coin-of ... _info.html.

This is something I think The Magic Wagon would put out, but for sure their price would be in the triple digits. When I purchased mine, I stuck to the double digits and have been very happy with it, although, a trained eye on the cheapos, may be able to spot the gimmick. So I am looking at purchasing another to fill the shoes of my fallen solider.

In my opinion Coin of the Realm is a perfect fit for Tenyo fans.
Cheers fellas!

I have Coin of the Realm. I bought it many years ago before getting heavily into Tenyo. I have the $180 one. I bought it for myself as a birthday present to justify the cost. It works very well and is very cool.
