Does anyone know who makes a Pressly Guitar flap style State quarter, and how is the quality? I have the old quarter like this made by Johnson, but it seems that now there are more state quarters than the old style ones.
S.E.M. (The Sun, the Moon, and the Earth) is a sun and moon routine unlike any other. Limited to 100 sets, here is the promo:

Yeah, I keep wondering when Johnson is going to make the switch.

Michael try Pm-ing Jason Wethington. He has a great idea for getting around the state quarters that adds an extra effect before the Cig-thru-quarter. I think at one time he might have posted the idea here on the Café but I know its on his DVD "Tied".

It's time for a change anyway. The trick needs to be updated all around.
No one smokes any more, or they try to keep it secret if they do, so I'd like to see the hole made to fit a standard pen or Sharpie or something like that.

I believe that tango sells the flap one that let's you show both sides before and after the effect.

I though Johnson Products makes their cig-thu-quarter just like Pressley Guitar's.

Johnson has made their gimmicked coins out of special requested coins for other magicians I have known. They don't promote it, but they will if it is possible for them.

All you need to get is 52 quarters made for each state and make an index for the inside of you jacket.

An additional problem is I just got in change 2 brand new quarters for the state of West Virginia. Being they are staggering the production, these coins will not match worn coins that have been out or a while.

To bad, a great trick spoiled by the Government.

If you can employ the coin showing the head's side as the penetration is made, only one is needed as that's the same on all of the state quarters, and there's not even a date as that's on the back.

That's an issue with any type of coin with many years of production. So maybe two are needed -- one crisp, and one worn?

I wouldn’t think that quarters made in the last 20 - 25 years would get very old-looking. Maybe a bit dirty but you can shine them up easily. There aren't - and won't be - any "soft" quarters in the clad type.

I rarely used a borrowed coin anyway, although I haven't done this particular effect for ages.
