I have been holding out on introducing you to the Coin Cylinder Nouveau for a while now because I wanted to incorporate a Dual Position coin set for the vanishes. Was finally able to get both in stock at the same time. It happened once before a couple of months ago, but the coins sold out before I was able to introduce you to the cylinder.
Although you can use any sleight of hand vanishes for the routine, I must confess that I cheated in the trailer by combining both products into one routine. Watch it: HERE
You will also find a coin vanisher that Seo put out. You likely already own a version of it but what you get with it is a tutorial by coin expert Ponta The Smith who shares some of his handlings and sequences, as seen in the trailer.
►Coin Cylinder Nouveau:
The Coin Cylinder Nouveau is a new method for having coins appear one at a time under a cylinder instead of all at once as in more traditional routines.
The cylinder is made from heavy duty plastic that is 3D printed to exact specifications to be used with US Dollar sized coins. The size of the tube is approximately 2”x1.5”. Use your own coins.
The tutorial teaches you how the cylinder works and how to use it. You will also learn the basics of the routine as well as some application ideas. You can use any coin vanishes you like or create your own sequences for the devious prop.

►Universal Coin Vanisher:
This is Seo’s version of the well-known coin vanishing gimmick. What makes this unique is the tutorial by Ponta The Smith who performs and explains (in pantomime) his techniques and sequences where he vanishes and transposes objects like coins, bills, and matches.

►Dual Position Triple Split Coins:
There have been many versions released by many different companies, but most are basically the same. Until now…
What Ted Bogusta created is a magnetic system he calls Dual Position which uses specially designed and manufactured magnets that allow the magnetic coins to overlap without aligning. This system allows you to place the overlapping coins in your hands, on the table, or even in the spectators’ hands.
The coins are also a little thicker than most, which allows them to be shown as full-sized coins as opposed to shims.

►MY LATEST RELEASE:
►Coin Copier:
This is an ingenious self-working coin box routine that Christian Scherer created in the 1980s. Since that time the manufacturing technology and the availability of the gimmicks used has advanced and the current version works perfectly.
The basic routine involves a metal box which is referred to as a tiny counterfeiting machine. You dump the four coins out of the box; a Japanese coin, a Swiss coin, a British coin and a US coin. Using the Japanese coin as a sample each coin is placed in the box and one at a time, as the box is waved over the Japanese coin, the coin inside instantly turns into a duplicate of the Japanese coin. This is repeated until all four coins have turned into Japanese coins and everything is examinable.

PS: I am slowly running out of the stuff I picked up at the 4F Convention. I think I only have one or two items before I start offering stuff other dealers have. The good news is that many items I sold out of are in the process of being manufactured, printed, and sent to me. Plus, some surprises from those creators.
