MyMagic eNewsletter #1,244

I originally wrote about my latest release and how well it did at Magic Live: HERE
In less than a day after that newsletter, everything from the second run sold-out. It has taken more than a month to get more made. This new batch is larger than the previous two, so I hope to have more than enough for the expected demand.
It is very easy to learn, very easy to perform, and gets great reactions because it seems to happen under your spectator’s nose and in their hands. It also incorporates a performance surface you can use for other routines.
►Cointemplate:
It is an impossible routine that can be performed as a stand-alone piece or as part of a longer coin set.
The basic routine involves two coins. A Kennedy Half Dollar, a copper English Penny and a see-through glass plate.
Your friend holds the glass plate between their hands as you balance the two coins on your fingertips. You place your hand with the coins under the plate so all can be seen. In an instant one of the coins penetrates the plate so there is only one coin under the plate while the other is sitting on top of the plate.

►Guaranteed Jackpot:
This routine will lead your spectators through a wonderful experience and then leave them with a memorable souvenir that could turn out to be very profitable.
Your friends shuffle a regular deck of number cards and after thoroughly mixing them you show a lottery ticket wallet with a live lottery ticket which you place face down.
The shuffled cards are dealt into six piles and the top card of each pile is pushed aside.
The six “random” cards are turned face up and they perfectly match the numbers on the lottery ticket. You then give the live ticket to your new friends and ask them to share the winnings with you if it hits.
