Magic Makers Magic Color Coins - Amazing Mind Reading Trick

Fun little trick, easy to use.

What I was expecting was not what I received, but what I received is still ok. The description of this trick stated that 1 coin would be selected and held aside while the remaining 4 coins were put back into the container, so the magic would be in detecting what was missing from the container, (which was a really cool trick when I saw a friend who had this!).The container that I received does not allow the trick to be completed as described. My container only allows space for 1 coin to be put inside, so the magic is about detecting which single coin is inside. The container being set up to only fit 1 coin is problematic for a couple of reasons:1) It leaves the remaining coins in the control of the audience member for further examination and comparison, which is not a good idea if you're doing this near a table or other flat surface.2) It raises unnecessary questions by the audience about the container itself and what that giant unused space is beneath the selected coin. It makes it appear as if the size of the container is part of the trick and immediately puts doubt into the audience, which devalues the magical fanfare.Overall, I can do this trick and handle those extra variables, but I'm a bit disappointed that these variables exist at all. I was hoping to receive the cool trick as described, but I received a lesser alternative.

This is a great quality little magic trick that's easy to understand for beginners. Everything came just as described and had a tidy little pouch to keep everything organized.

I was intrigued by the fantastic reviews for this product, so I bought it. It is clever in its design, and extremely well made. However, realistically it has several flaws. The gimmick is easily detectable. I performed this before several children, and each spotted the gimmick. Also asked questions as to the physical properties of the item (leading to greater suspicion). And lastly, to perform this trick requires some simple memorization, which may be easily forgotten if you are not performing it regularly. Otherwise, it is a fairly interesting and entertaining trick.

A bit hard to see the secret to make it work. A design on the brass tube would have been nice to aid in doing the trick. Otherwise, it will fool people even when they are allowed to examine all the pieces.

Great trick, everything can be handed out for inspection. It is brass so you feel the weight and feels real...whatever that means. Very hard to figure out. This is my favorite trick. I recommend it to anyone. It is very easy to do.

Item was in excellent condition. Very good.
