Coinception by Roddy McGhie (10p)

You’re a magician, you’re used to vanishing coins and making them appear somewhere else. But how about materialising one, piece by piece, from thin air? Sounds impossible, but it’s not! Because Roddy McGhie has gosh darn done it again, with the reality bending miracle Coinception.

The magician explains that it isn’t actually sleight of hand that allows a magician to pull a coin from behind someone’s ear. It’s physics. If you know how you can grab all the necessary atoms out of the air and form them into a coin. To prove it, the magician will form one right there, right now, and in slow motion. Pinching their fingers together, the magician suddenly has half a coin at their fingertips. Selecting a few more atoms out of the air, they now have a quarter of a coin, and fuse both pieces together. With three-quarters of a coin now at their fingertips, the magician pinches the final piece from the air, and fuses all three together. The resulting coin is immediately handed out for examination.

No moving parts, no magnets, no rubber bands, fully examinable with nothing for your audience to find. In the box you receive the delightfully sturdy Coinception gimmick that’s built to last, and expert instructions by Roddy, including his own special handling for one of the most convincing bite-out coin routines you’ve ever seen.
