Description
Fred Lowe created this c. 1965 and it was originally called the M.T. Coin Cylinder (the M.T. stands for “empty”). It is based on earlier effects such as Abbott’s Double Cap Coin Trick c. 1948, or the still earlier Brema’s Nickles and Dimes, with notable improvements.
Fred’s Coin Cylinder came out a decade before one of Tenyo’s biggest sellers: Dynamic Coins which uses basically the same gimmicks though the routines vary.
This is the rarer version of the Coin Cylinder using Half Dollars not Quarters or British three penny pieces which are the more common size. The larger size makes for an even more spectacular looking effect. Some versions of this effect used two stacks of coins and some a single stack. The one on this page has just a single stack.
Includes: all coins shown in the video.
Effect: A spectator holds a small brass cylinder whilst performer fills it with half dollars. Without any switches or steals, the nickels vanish or change into quarters for example whilst spectator still holds the cylinder. The spectator himself opens the cylinder.
