Great set. I have an ishtar set that looks about the same with an extra insert.
Very easy to use. |

Does anyone know if a sun/moon set comes in a quarter size.

I've been trying for years to get a Lassen 'Sun & Moon' set and despite many emails and contact attempts via his website, I've never even had the courtesy of a reply.
Whilst I accept, from trusted friends, that his workmanship may be fantastic, his erratic customer service leaves much to be desired. It is a shame, because I would actually have made use of the item and probably spent a small fortune with him, but he obviously makes enough not to care. Definitely not a rant, but more a deep disappointment that quality gaffs are so difficult to obtain. |

I had a special set made up to do it (or "Somoya") in Morgan Dollar and a Dollar size Copper version of a Walker Half. To me, Tat routine is pure poetry in motion. Doug Brewer has an effect called "Fidget" (On the Unexpected Visitor DVD) that uses the same coin set and is also awesome.

This really is a superb routine TC. Thanks for posting. If anyone has an effect called 'envision' by Alakazam, I believe it has the exact configuration of coins also used in this.

The gaff as described in Bobo's "The New Modern Coin Magic" has an English Half Crown as the outer coin and an English Penny as the smaller coin. Sol Stone had one of these coins.
Johnson Products advertises an Ultimate Silver and Copper set. This uses a Half Dollar as the outer coin and a cut down English Penny as the smaller coin.

With Johnson’s Ultimate Silver Copper set, the copper/silver insert locks tightly into the silver shell (like a Scotch & Soda set), so it behaves differently from a standard, loose-fitting Sun and Moon set.
The Ultimate SC set does also include an English penny that loosely fits the silver shell, but (unlike the locking c/s insert), it’s copper on both sides.
