Coin Box by Blueether Magic & Raphael

Effect

The Coin Box Deluxe Set creates the illusion of coins vanishing, appearing, and moving between boxes in impossible ways. The audience sees coins placed inside a small box, only to watch them disappear, reappear, or jump out on command. The routine can be adapted for different presentations, making it versatile for close-up or parlor performances.

Full Details

The set includes four boxes: an Aito box, a Boston box, a slot box, and a solid box, along with three lids. Each box serves a different purpose in coin magic routines, allowing for multiple phases of deception. The boxes are well-made, with consistent weight and finish, ensuring smooth handling during performances.

Who Should Consider the Trick

This set is ideal for magicians interested in coin magic, whether they are beginners or experienced performers. Beginners can start with simple routines, while advanced magicians can incorporate the boxes into more complex sequences. The set is particularly useful for close-up and parlor magicians who want a visually engaging prop.

Information on How Difficult It Is to Perform

The difficulty varies depending on the routine. Basic sequences, such as making coins vanish and reappear, are straightforward and require minimal sleight of hand. More advanced routines may involve box switches and timing, which take practice to perfect. Andy Smith notes that "coin box magic isn't even technically difficult" for most routines, making it accessible to a wide range of skill levels.

What Magicians Say

Peter Nardi and Andy Smith from AlakazamMagicUK highly recommend the Coin Box Deluxe Set, calling it "fantastic value" and praising its quality. They emphasize that the set is rare at this price point, with Peter stating, "I haven't seen a coin box set of this value ever." Andy adds that the boxes "grow with you," meaning they remain useful as a magician's skills improve.

The hosts also highlight the versatility of the set, noting that it works well for both simple and advanced routines. Peter mentions that even if a magician doesn't use all the boxes immediately, having a matching set ensures consistency for future performances. Their final advice? "Grab them while you can" due to the set's affordability and potential future price increases.
