Magic Review - Coin Thru Coin by Jay Leslie
David from Magic Orthodoxy delivers a detailed review of "Coin Thru Coin" by Jay Leslie, a unique coin magic trick available through hocus-pocus.com. The trick creates the illusion of a half dollar passing through a slot in a larger dollar coin, utilizing a clever gimmick rather than a folding coin. The package includes the necessary props – a half dollar, a slotted dollar coin, and a cover – but notably lacks a video tutorial, relying instead on written instructions and color photographs. David highlights the importance of skillful switching to maintain the illusion and suggests incorporating organic patter to enhance the presentation. He appreciates the realism of the props and considers the $35 price reasonable. Ultimately, he recommends "Coin Thru Coin" as a worthwhile addition to a coin magician's repertoire, especially for those seeking a distinctive penetration effect, and encourages viewers to support his channel through memberships, Amazon links, and merchandise.
