Imagine no more...

The Secrets of COINS ACROSS
Learn a classic of card magic that your audience will remember forever.

If you could have one set of magic DVDs, this would be it! This benchmark collection features just about all of magic's most enduring and classic effects and routines. It's a fabulous compendium with many of the top masters in the world of magic teaching their handlings and routines for some of magic's classics. Linking rings, sponge balls, metal bending, cups and balls, thumb tips, Zombie, color-changing knives, and many, many more topics are all gathered in this one terrific DVD reference set. Each volume covers a specific subject and features new, old, and sometimes rare footage by some of the top video producers in magic.

Of the various plots that make up the world of coin magic, Coins Across has always held a special place in the heart, and repertoires, of close-up magicians. Audiences always seem to be intrigued by the idea of coins traveling invisibly between the performer’s hands, which accounts for the enormous popularity of this very magical effect.

On this DVD, you'll see ten different takes on the Coins Across effect. The approaches are different but the main thing they all have in common is that there are absolutely no gaffed coins required for any of the versions presented here. You'll see Johnny Thompson perform Dai Vernon's Winged Silver, perhaps the version that started it all. Michael Ammar demonstrates why his Incredible Coins Across is appropriately named as the coins travel into the spectator's hand – and the last one appears visibly in his open hand! You'll find easy-to-do versions such as Alexander de Cova's Chinese Money Mystery and Paul Diamond's Flying Eagles to more technically-demanding versions such as Jay Sankey's Mr. Clean Coins Across, Michael Close's Too Ahead and Ross Bertram's Passing the Buck.

From classic handlings from Michael Skinner and Al Schneider to interpretations with a surprise ending, such as Fernando Keops' offering, there's enough material here to enable you to pass coins back and forth between your hands for a lifetime.

Coins Across (World's Greatest Magic) - DVD

This is a great collection of ‘Coin Across’ routines to watch if you are looking to create your own routine. The ‘Coins Across’ routine is one of the most popular plots in coin magic and every good professional magician I know has his own routine ;)

Some featured versions require an extra coin or gimmick while some just require the coins. What makes this DVD valuable is that you learn various coin techniques in the course of the explanation of the routines like the Pop-Out Move, Shuttle Pass, False Transfer, Han Pin Chein Move, Goshman Pinch, etc!

Michael Ammar’s Incredible Coin Across is a fantastic magical experience for a small group of audience. The last coin apparently visibly drop into the spectator’s ahnd out of te sky!

Jay Sankey’s Mr Clean Coins Across is very clean but also quite difficult. This one needs practice but can done with any 3 coins.

Johnny Thompson Winged Silver is the closest to the classic Vernon and Roth version of the Coins Across is a must-study.

If you're interested in coin magic, this is one investment you shouldn't go without... Highly recommended!!!!
