Have been slowly going through the coin magic on the New York Coin Magic Seminar videos (not all 36+ hours yet) and am finding some brilliant techniques, applications, advice, and of course routines that I never knew existed.
I am in the process of putting out three different Geoff Latta downloads with different degrees of difficulty. I am noticing that many of the stuff that he did, which was considered difficult, was actually a matter of timing and choreography as opposed to difficult sleight of hand.
The first download is below. It is a shelled coins across routine that is easy and uses techniques and subtleties that were not known to me. I am also including two other versions on the video that are similar but use regular coins and different strategies and techniques. I think you will like it, and the techniques taught could be applied to magic you already do and may even streamline them.
I should also mention that the introductory price will expire on Friday night.
►Slippery Silver:
Geoff Latta performs and teaches three of his coins across routines that use three different methods.
►Slippery Silver: An easy Coins Across routine where coins jump, one at a time, from one hand to the other. The props used are four coins and a shell.
►Not So Slippery Silver: Geoff replicates his Slippery Silver routine, only this time he uses an extra coin instead of a shell, along with advanced sleight of hand.
►Bonus: During a live discussion at the New York Coin Magic Seminar Geoff teaches his Pure Silver coins across routine that uses his handling of the Pop-Up move.
►Techniques explained include: Utility Switch Out Of Shell, Open Utility Switch, Flop-Pop, The Flopperino Vanish, Han Pin Chen, and The Two-Minus One Retention Of Vision Vanish.

Here is another autographed book by Michael Bregger that you can only get from me. Very limited inventory.
►Dancing With The Cards:
A collection of quirky, yet amazing, almost-self-working card effects which include the subtleties, tips and nuances to make your magic easy, astonishing and engaging.
Routines include: The Third Attribute, That Flippin’ Contest, The Pasteboard Tango, 52!, The (Un)Usual Suspects, Occupation Hazard, Face Your Fears, The Wry Detector, My Favorite Things, and My Birthday Card. Plus, a section on some subtleties and “pro-tips,” and several non-move moves!

I just received a big shipment of Tom Gagnon’s Hof-Sender Aces. This will likely be the last time I can offer them to you. Especially at this price. To read what I previously wrote about them go: HERE
►Hof-Sender Aces:
The routine begins by removing the four black eights and nines and the four aces from the deck. The Aces are placed on the table in a row and one of the black cards is held face down over the flashlight, so you can see through it to verify that it is one of the black eights or nines.
The black card is put to one side as you take one of the Aces and add it to the packet of black cards. After pretending to do a whole card switch you show the four black cards with no Ace in sight. You then turn over the black card that they just saw you place to one side, and it is the Ace.
This is repeated three more times until all the Aces are together on one side.

►BACK IN STOCK:
Got a bunch of David Solomon’s Time Warp Wallets that have continually sold-out. I think this was one of the routines that David was most proud of.
►Time Warp Wallet:
The main routine has you name your favorite card and your friend name any other card. Your card is lost anywhere in the deck as you attempt to cut to it. You cut to a card which you claim is your favorite, place it in the wallet as you remove some money. You then offer your friend the opportunity to win the money if they can cut to their card. Of course, they can’t, and you then explain why. When the wallet is opened you show that the card you placed inside was your favorite card and the card that was behind a clear window the entire time was their freely named card.
