Coin in Glass Trick: The Outer Limits

Saturday, September 26, 2009 | |


World Easiest Magic Trick - Funny blooper videos are here

Here's a new variation of coin in glass (kinda new method to me). It's a very similar routine with "Factory Sealed - Coin in Bottle" by Justin Miller in which I am more familiar with. The magician have called this the outer limits. I can say it's a superb innovation that he has done for this trick that made it more impromptu trick friendly.

This coin through glass trick is based on refraction principle that had made the coin inside the glass invisible. The main objective for this trick is for the hidden coin inside the glass to appear and the coin outside of the glass to disappear and when performed accordingly, can create an amazing illusion of a borrowed coin penetrating inside of a glass. The most important thing to be minded of for this trick is your angle. This trick is usually performed with a small audience of which should be inside the perimeter of your 11 to 1 o'clock angle.

But there is a bit of problem that I have found for this trick. It's the ending part of making the coin outside of the glass vanish or the way he disposes off of the coin which is very crucial part of the trick, your clean up part. You can't just drop it off on the floor or behind the table, you'll surely be busted by your spectators. For this part, you can use the techniques provided in Factory Sealed - Coin in Bottle. Justin Miller had used 5 methods for the vanish part that gives a very clean effect and leaves no trace of doubt but only amazement with your audience.

Vanish methods used are:

1. Retention clip vanish

2. Reel vanish

3. Phantom pick

4. Sleeve it

5. Back flip

Just check out the Factory Sealed video tutorial at Ellusionist for these vanish methods as this has been demonstrated one by one and step by step that you could easily do.
