On the Money
(Gimmick and Online Instructions) by Gavin James
"This is an extremely strong piece of magic and well worth the
little effort needed to first set it up. This is ideal for strolling
magic and you can do this one-on-one or involve several people. It’s an
ideal routine for trade-shows because you can have several people take
out coins and then have them make choices - it’s a great close-up
routine for getting several people involved The fact that all THEIR
choices end up written on the back of THEIR chosen card really makes
this a knock out routine. Extremely clever and great for all close-up
situations from walk about to parlour style shows." -Paul Romhany, *Reviews Vanish Magazine
Imagine asking the spectator to choose a card in the fairest of ways...
They are now asked to take a handful of change from their pocket, any amount, and are asked to choose just one coin (no force)...
The coin is now flipped by the spectator and they are asked to name if it's landed on either heads or tails...
The magician explains that first, he'll find the selected card...
Placing one down onto their hand, it's the chosen card... Pretty impressive!
NOW FOR THE MINDBLOWING KICKER FINISH
The magician reminds the spectator that they could have chosen any card...
That they chose one and then took a handful of change from their pocket...
They chose ANY coin and then flipped it into the air, landing on heads or tails...
The magician asks the spectator to turn the card over and look at what the magician has written on the back of the one card (it's the only card with writing on the back)...
The spectator reads out the message which predicts not only which coin will be chosen, but also how it will land when it's spun into the air!
