Coin Tray Updated!

The original version of the Bodega Coin Tray didn’t have the letting colored in. That was intentional as I personally wanted mine to look like it’s been on a counter for a while, so I only colored mine in lightly. However I’ve had a lot of people ask me for one that’s colored in so they don’t have to do that.

If you want one colored it, simply shoot me a note before ordering and I’ll make yours that way.

The Bodega Coin Tray – Reviews

Bodega Coin Tray

About a month ago I started selling The Bodega Coin tray. This is the classic multiplying coin tray magic prop, but with new clothes. It’s designed to look like the “need a penny” tray on the counter of a corner store.

The problem with the classic version is there’s really no reason to hold a handful of coins on an ornate wooden tray or a shiny chrome one.

Since I released it I’ve gotten a ton of cool feed back. Doc Dixon gave it a shout out in his newsletter

These are getting out there in the world, and it makes me happy!

The Bodega Coin Tray

I’ve been doing my version of the Multiplying Coin Tray for a while now. I call it the Bodega Coin Tray. It’s gone though some tweaks over time with the design of the tray, but am loving the current version!

Here’s the coin tray in action:

The full routine starts with a four penny trick, that has a few phases to it. Then I do the coins to spectator’s hands. It’s a great sequence and using the tray that looks like a “need a penny” try from a corner store allows me to get the tray into the routine with a joke. Then doing tricks where the tray isn’t the method takes heat off of the tray when I use it for the method.

I have an introductory price on these now through the end of september 2024. The normal price will be $25, but I’m offering them at $20 right now, with free shipping in the USA!

Need a Coin Tray

The “need a penny” tray that I’ve been playing with for a little while has been getting good reactions. It was time to tweak the design to make it look better and slightly more deceptive. The new one (on the right) is next to the old one:

The two main changes that I made was that I beveled the edges of the tray and I printed the bottom portion in black. Here’s a few more views of it:

The beveled edged and black bottom make it look soo much thinner. This is a great example of why you should learn about all types of magic. Essentially I took some stage illusion principles and applied them to a close up magic prop to make it more deceptive. I guess reading Rand Woodbury’s Illusionworks book when I was a teenager finally paid off!
