One of Ted Bogusta’s best-selling coin creations is his Dual Position Copper Silver Copper coin set. Over the past year many people asked me when it will be back? He was finally able to make a few more sets for us. The main feature that many purchasers loved is that they could do their favorite CSB type routines without any shells or awkward moves… It allowed the routines to almost work themselves.

You will also find a neat Sharpie through Quarter routine whose method is based on the original Brema pen through nickel effect, which predated all the modern cigarette through coin routines.

►Dual Position Copper Silver Copper:

Connie Haden’s original Silver And Two Copper Transposition is a classic of coin magic which sparked hundreds of variations and handlings. This new gimmicked version designed by Ted Bogusta is likely the best.

What Ted did was take the classic set of coins and infused them with his DPS (Dual Position Magnetic System). The custom magnetic system allows you to do all the basic and classic routines plus many more displays and sequences that were never possible before.

Some features that are important:
►There are no shells involved which eliminates awkward displays and handlings where you have to turn the coins and then let the gimmick fall out of a shell.
►The Dual Position feature allows you to show the overlapping copper coins and in an instant morph them into a silver coin. And you can instantly turn the silver coin into the two coppers by just sliding them.
►Part of the gimmick doubles as a standard copper/silver coin, so you can start with your favorite Copper/Silver sequence and transition into a CSC routine.
►The hole on the East African coin is real and goes right through.

►Pen Through Coin:

The pen or cigarette through quarter is a classic of magic. There have been many versions in print and many other versions marketed.

This is an easy low-tech method that is very easy to do. You begin with a US Quarter, push a Sharpie Marker through it, show both sides of the coin, remove the Sharpie and the coin is restored.

►Neutrino:

A Precision Penetration Puzzle that is made of stainless steel. Self-working and can be done surrounded.

You begin with a twelve-piece puzzle that is made of heavy half-inch, stainless-steel pieces. You and your friend assemble the pieces into a solid, impenetrable block that is around the size of a deck of cards.

The block is slid into an examinable heavy-plastic case that has a slit running through it. You then insert a playing card right through the slit and the stainless-steel block that was just built. The card is moved around and even inserted lengthwise! Once your friend removes the card from the block the puzzle is removed from its case and all the pieces are separated showing the impossibility that was just created.

This is the first time the block that is being penetrated, is shown at the beginning, so the magic becomes clear.

►BACK IN STOCK:

Just received a few more of these gimmicked dice and mugs that are likely the best ways to force numbers between one and fifteen. Especially at this ridiculously low price. A single gaffed die from a gambling supply house used to cost more than three times what this set is going for.

►Forcing Cup:

This is a gimmicked ceramic coffee mug and a set of gimmicked dice that can be used to control, in advance, which numbers are going to be rolled.

You can use these to force numbers for many different types of routines. All the props look natural and can be separately examined.

Unlike many forcing systems, there is no need to carry extra accessories or gimmicks. Simply bring the cup and the dice, and you are ready to perform anywhere. Everything is completely self-contained.

The cup we carry is known as the large size and can be used to force up to three dice simultaneously.

►MY MAGIC’S LATEST RELEASE:

►Sword Illusion ProCase:

The Magic Sword Illusion is arguably one of the best and most deceptive illusions in magic. It creates an impossible illusion of a knife repeatedly penetrating through a toothpick or any such object. It is truly a mind-boggling illusion that seems impossible even after you know how it works.

The idea was to create a case for it, so it looks less like a toy and more like an interesting oddity. The Sword Illusion ProCase is a custom-made black case made of strong plastic that has a rough texture. It comes complete with a Sword Illusion already embedded so it can be performed immediately.
