Coin Box Magic

Grandfathers Coin Box

Grandfathers Coin Box

Grandfathers Coin Box

I show you how to adapt my "Grandfather of 3fly" idea from my busking show to the Okito box. This is an exploration of the use of the fingertip coins across and how it can be used for other effects. 

IV out with V

This routine is designed to give you an alternate way to use the one ahead system for the coin box. There is some novel thinking that takes place with this routine but above all else it is easy to do.

The Red Bag Holdout

The Red Bag Holdout

This is a simple concept that has been used for other ideas, but I have adapted it to the coin box. This concept can be used in so many ways and I am sure you will find many yourself. 

The Spellbound Box

There are so many plots in the area of coin box magic but this one is a bit unique. There are so many moments of magic in this effect but moreover it is an exploration of using the box not just as the subject but as a way to ditch coins throughout a routine. 

Pierced Thru

The Spellbound Box

Pierced Thru

In the world of coin box there are very few ideas using the coin box that has a hole through it that just are nothing more than a subtle way to show the coins inside. This routine is a great way to use one in a different manner. 

Coin Two Box

The Spellbound Box

Pierced Thru

This is one of my favorite coin box inventions as it uses a coin gaff you can make yourself with ease and is completely overlooked by so many in magic. I hope for those out there it will get you thinking after using this effect more!

Birds of a Feather

The Buck Stops Here

Birds of a Feather

This is a routine made for the finger flickers out there. During the course of three copper coins transposing with the three silver coins in a coin box an unexpected ending ensues. 

BensOkito

Birds of a Feather

This is my full take on blending the Benson Bowl concept with the Okito box.  It makes for a quant routine that can be done in so many conditions.

This is a great example of how a coin box can be used in your walk around gigs. It has been designed to milk as many subtleties as possible from a simple coin box and plug. I also teach you how to keep your audience from thinking your coin box is odd. Using mental tension, it almost doesn't exist at all.

Just Three Under

Star Triple Travel

The Buck Stops Here

This concept is one among numerous ideas I've conceived, merging two traditional tricks to create a seamless sequence of coins moving from my hand to an inverted coin box on a table. Additionally, this tutorial marks the beginning of the lesson on the "Identity Vanish."

No Table Required

This is undoubtedly one of the most popular coin box routines I teach, as it's performed entirely in the hands without the need for a table. It's magical and features several sleights that may be new to you.

This is almost a mini Passe Passe type effect where coins travel from the box to the lid as they are both inverted on the table. This is an interesting lesson in alternative ideas with a coin box.

The Chinese Magic Coin

The Black Penny

Before the well-known CCC routine became popular, I began experimenting with a coin and ribbon act. In this act, three coins would seemingly pass through a ribbon, then disappear, only to reappear inside a small box that had a hole in it.

The Black Penny

Very few coin box effects come along that are of the macabre type, but the Black Penny is just that. The story of a penny with magical powers is used to create some great transposition s only to vanish without a trace.

Showing how the old-world Chinese magi used a coin in place of a magic wand you cause coins to travel from a small brass box to your pocket in an amazingly clean way. 

Triple Transpo

Benson meets Okito

The Chinese Magic Coin

This is a very clean transposition effect where silver and copper coins change places when one or the other are locked in a small brass box. I introduce for the first time an idea I created that takes incredible advantage of a superb David Roth idea.

Hoo Thru and Thru

If you're unfamiliar with Hoo's coin box, prepare for an entertaining journey. I elevate this box design with a practical magic routine that surpasses all expectations of what's possible with this apparatus.

This variation combines two remarkable effects: the Okito coin box and the Benson bowl. It's a practical approach with immense potential, which enabled the realization of my ultimate version.

Not Quite In

This effect breathes new life into classic concepts not previously associated with the coin box. It's a fantastic little illusion that appears incredibly neat. The sleights involved, once seen, truly bring the name into perspective.

I often perform this at the end of an eight-person table because it's highly visual when done up close. It's similar to the Miser's Dream effect, combined with a coin box routine.

The Drop Box is a specialized card case crafted for the effortless swapping of coin boxes during performances. I will explain how to build it and the different techniques for its utilization.
