Unleash Astonishing Coin Magic with Penny Fantasy
Step into the world of masterful coin magic with Steve Dacri's acclaimed 'Penny Fantasy' ebook. This digital download provides a timeless routine that has captivated audiences for decades, delivering a mind-bending sequence of coin vanishes and transformations. Renowned for its deceptive simplicity and powerful impact, this routine is a must-have for any serious close-up magician looking to elevate their sleight of hand.
The Core Routine: A Symphony of Deception
At the heart of 'Penny Fantasy' lies a truly baffling effect: a borrowed nickel is placed into the magician's palm, which then closes into a fist. Without any suspicious movements from the other hand, the nickel vanishes, only to be replaced by an oversized jumbo penny upon reopening the hand. The hand is shown otherwise empty, and the jumbo penny can be thoroughly examined, proving its solid nature. But the magic doesn't stop there. The jumbo penny is then placed back into the hand, squeezed, and transforms once more. Instead of the expected nickel, a cascade of five tiny micro-pennies tumbles forth. This three-phase routine is a complete and self-contained miracle that leaves spectators utterly amazed.
