Hi, does anyone know a great coin manufacturer?
I really want to work on cigarette thru coin, but I want to do this trick with my currency. I contacted johnson and school craft. But both of them denies my order because of legal reasons. If I have to make it in my country. Does anyone know the type of machine that is used to make this coin? |

Tango will do special orders, contact them. In my new Penguin Live lecture, I perform a routi e called Three Quarters, where three quarters are borrowed, and somethi g is done with each of them. For the last coin, a borrowed and signed bill is pushed through the coin. You might like that better than using a cigarette. The lecture is available for download on August 28th, at Penguin magic. That routine uses a lresly guitar flap style coin. However, there are nice routine with just a coin with the right size hole cut into the center, easier to make. Last, I have seen flipper coins made that allow you to see both sides of the coin.
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:

If I were you, I would get out a drill and make a Bellinger style coin, to start with. If you have some decent sleights,
the clean display of both sides is definitely worth something. |

It's strange that nobody answers your question straight away.
If you want to make coin gaffs yourself, you need a professional (precision) lathe and much experience with this type of machinery. That's the only way to become good results. |

A classic lathe will do the job. But it will need an experienced mechanician. After all it's precision work and he needs much knowledge on the matter. Manny times coins are not easy to work, because of the mixed materials.

A 20,000 lb punch is used to make the hole.The lathes are now computer Controlled for precision.The work would be simple for an experienced machinist.Finding a reverse spring would be the problem.I would take a Johnson coin to the best machinist I could find and see if he would be willing to do it your cost range.I would also have him make me more than one.
PS If you can't find the springs you could get the machinist to salvage one from a Johnson coin or ask Johnson if they would be willing to sell you some of their springs or tell you their supplier.Maybe they would help you since they probably won't see you as competition since they refused the job.BTW was a Union Ironworker 20 years. |

If you don't mind my asking, what country/currency?
I'm puzzled about their legal reasons, since I thought most countries let you use coins/modify for artistic things. |
