Sometimes I see a trick and I’m not sure how I feel about it. The effect is a coins through table, but with jumbo coins.
Watch the video:
From a magician’s standpoint the jumbo coins add difficulty. From a non-magician standpoint, I’m not sure if it enhances the effect. Sure, everyone knows that doing sleight of hand with a 3 inch diameter coin is much harder than with a 1 inch diameter coin. That difference is something that doesn’t really matter in the moment, unless you sell the trick as a “try to catch me” sort of trick.
Also, why jumbo coins?
I get that it’s a coin trick made bigger, but wouldn’t drink coasters work instead of the jumbo coins. Now you have a trick with a natural object that belongs on a table.
I think the effect in the video is very well done, however not sure how I feel about the trick.
