Coin magic offers a great many opportunities to the young magician as there is a minimum expense for the articles used and very often the coins can be borrowed for the various tricks. The ability to handle the coins and manipulate them for magical effects is a skill which until recently was acquired only by instruction from a professional coin magician.This book contains most careful and detailed instructions for the basic moves and techniques of coin magic. In addition, several effects are included for each of the basic sleights as well as exercises designed to help the beginner gain ability and self confidence. Ten basic sleights and twenty two tricks, some published for the first time, are described in 199 pages of text with 505 drawings by one of Japan's finest young magicians.
