I just wanted to share this amazing work I just received from John Jurney.
First off, I have purchased coin gaffs from Schoolcraft, Wong, Kueppers, Tango, Johnson etc. so I know Quality coin gaffs when I see them and it’s not often I find something this awesome. In fact in the end I leave most coin gaffs at home except the occasional copper silver. So enter this new Triple Split Casino Chip coin set, you likely already know of Johnny Wong’s Double Face Super Triple Coin and some of you may have already heard of JJ’s Coin Coalition which is a huge improvement on the concept. I own both, and I would say while JJ’s is better because it eliminated the need for the stickers. Sometimes the visibility was not as great as could be obtained with dark colored stickers on the original DFSTC. It was a trade off but I still much prefer real coins to stickers. I also prefer the price So I talked to John and worked out a deal for a couple sets using my signature ‘Clownsec Clown Army’ coins which I carry with me. Oh boy did he deliver! Take a look at these beauties. This new poker chip design is perfection. I doubt I will ever see it topped. The poker chips are real metal, real coins, and yet the colors on them allow them to be seen from a distance and have a great contrast compared to the other coins used. Now you have visibility, you have real coins, you have the miracles available in the DFSTC and with multiple colored chips it even opens up possibilities for all sorts of impossible color changes! No I was not paid to write this and get no discount or anything, I just wanted to give you guys the heads up, if you like coin gaffs or even if you don’t... I think this is the first one you can literally carry everywhere and have the quality needed to be performed as close up as it gets with no funny business at all. No odd looking sticker coins.. just pure magic! |

You wont find many that aren't already aware of JJ's supreme craftsmanship. Although the pictures are nice, I have not "seen" that completed set and since it was your own, I guess I see why. John is a very gifted craftsman.

I just got my set from John as well, and can attest to the craftsmanship of this set. I had him customize the colors (black, blue and white, rather than red). I'm carrying it around with some real Morgans, and from a distance, you won't be able to tell the difference. I'm also going through the videos now, and his teaching style is well done...

I asked what price to make a set with MY Morgans I supply. $140 shipped FYI.

ATXT, how is the white color? Can you shown a photo? I want white, red, black, looks good contrast in my opinion. I tried to purchase, but didn’t find option to Bulgaria, so sent them a message and waiting respond.

I was an "early" purchaser of Coin Coalition and just received a Triple Split Casino Chip. I got the "imitation Morgan" version. I went to a coin shop and found a real Morgan that is a close enough match for a switch (for spt inspection). The coins are fantastic; the machining is virtually perfect and the colored chips are highly visible. I also like the routine provided (more so than the original Coin Coalition routine).

I was going to have mine custom made but it was none of the coins in my currency with the specs he needed. But I think the Eisenhowers will do fine. Looking forward to get them. I can imagine there will be a few hours (really months..) in front of the mirror, my wife and friends practicing before Im confident enough to bring them with me out.

Welcome to the Café, EasyK...
First, you've made a good choice in going with John's NEW Triple Split Casino Chip set...It is really a great set of coins as mentioned here by so many happy customers (actually, in thousands of posts, I've yet to see an unhappy customer)...nothing better out there, bar none! And spending good time practicing it will work wonders for you to feel comfortable doing it for people. But really, you'll get comfortable really fast as the routine is very intuitive, and John's design makes it so smooth to pull it off. You'll get the hang of it real fast because truly it's a lot of fun to it as well...you'll see. And the Eisenhowers will work just fine for you, and give real interest to the effect by your specs there in Norway(?) or wherever you happen to be in this big wide world... And not to mention that you'll find that specs will be more interested in the magic you make with the coins than what the coins are themselves...you'll see. Please let us know here how it goes for you...And again, welcome.

Thanks MB217 for the kind words. I got a mail the same day I ordered them, and he said he will ship to me the end of the week. Great customer service, and that he will ship them so quick is incredible.
Yes, I'm from Norway, and I guess what you're saying about the specs will be more interested in the Magic is true. That said, not many have seen those big Eisenhowers here so I bought 3 extra just to switch out and show them afterwards. Looking forward to get the set, and I will let you know how it goes when they arrive.

I just got my Triple Split Casino Chip yesterday and I love it. I do wish it was a download though instead of having to sit at the computer
to learn it. Since I'm new to coin magic it's going to take awhile to get the handling down. I love practicing so it's going to be a lot of fun. Great craftmanship John. Allen |

Yes, the craftsmanship is great and so much better than using the gaff with the stickers, if you know what I mean.

I have both the stickers and the new ones. I prefer the silence of the stickers but the look of the new ones. Its a fun set to play with.

Man, it's wonderful to hear all you guys give recognition to John's work. It really is so cleverly done and is just one heckuva trick to do for people...Packs small but plays BIG! Once you get the moves down (not difficult) you'll have a rocket in your pocket at all times.
I know a guy that bought John's set here and was reluctant because he is not a big coin guy (and actually he's much more of a card man), but wanted to try a coin trick with a lot of BANG!, something that would make him look like he was great at coins to break up all the card work. Well, he just loves this set and carries it with him wherever he goes. So thank you, 44, mentalboy & 111 for your kind thoughts here. It's this sort of appreciation that truly inspires and helps people to march on.
