Very proud of the new David Roth release. David single handedly changed the world of coin box magic with his first release in 1973 as part of the New Stars Of Magic series. I performed that routine hundreds of times to music as part of my close-up set. It was brilliant and magical.
But that routine was only the beginning. His passion for coin box magic was finally revealed in his 1982 book “Expert Coin Magic” written by Richard Kaufman. A large part of that book featured many original routines, techniques, and strategies using Okito and Boston coin boxes. That book ushered in a new era of coin box magic which featured longer and more magical routines.
But David didn’t stop there. In pursuit of the ultimate coin box routine, he designed his own boxes based on a little known secret, at the time, where a slot was hidden inside the box so it could steal one of the coins as it is being emptied. He combined that with heavier boxes with thicker walls and a wider opening which allowed for even more possibilities and his ultimate routine that can be seen: HERE
►Roth Coin Box Set:
This is similar to the set of boxes David used to sell at his lectures. You get the Roth Coin Box, a matching Okito Box, a matching Boston Box, and a lid that fits over all of them.
Comes with access to a 50-minute instructional video by David Roth.

►Roth Coin Box:
Many magicians who purchased the original Roth Coin Box Set ended up only using the Roth Coin Box, from the set, for David’s routine or their own version of it. For the first time we are offering just the Roth Coin Box and lid which will allow you to do the main routine that is performed on the trailer.
Comes with access to a 50-minute instructional video by David Roth.

Both Roth Coin Box sets come with access to a 50-minute video tutorial where David teaches some of his best routines and techniques created for these boxes. You will learn the following routines and techniques: Out With Five, Out In Out, Shelled Coins From Box, Coins Through Hand, Box Through Hand, L’Homme Masque Load, Benzais Friction Palm, Shuttle Pass, Retention Vanish, Michael Skinner’s Spidergrip Vanish, The Scoop Addunder, Lid Load, Lapping From A Closed Fist, Rim Steal, Stack Rim Steal, Sweeplap Box Switch, Shuttle-Pass Box Switch, Spellbound Box Switch, and more.
By the way, these boxes were made in the United States, and I am keeping the prices as low as possible. I was already told that because of the rising costs of raw materials and labor, the next time I have them made there will be a price increase and every quote they give me will only be good for three days!

Stay happy, Meir
PS: I always loved formal coin box routines because they look mysterious, create interest, and help focus peoples’ attention on the magic.
