Does anybody have the same problem? ;-)
When I balance a half dollar on my pinky with my fingers closed tightly it reaches about the middle of my middle finger... so I just concluded it wasn't physically possible to backpalm afterall ;-) I think I'm just checking to see if I have abnormally large hands |

I have to use silver dollars for backpalming. Same problem: my hands are too large for halves.

Congrats if you do have large hands.
The fingers together makes this not so natural for most purposes in my opinion.
...to all the coins I've dropped here

...And they say that "size" doesn't matter.
I just wanted to inquire as to exactly what are you using the Back Palm for? To be honest, one of the only things I would use it for is Back to Front Acquital. For most other stuff that I've looked into, it would end up being overkill. There are many viable options for showing the palm empty of the same hand you are concealing a coin with. My 2, Rob - Palm THIS!!! |

I have the same problem as all the above but the answer to use a larger coin is pretty obvious. You should consider yourself blessed because the bigger the coin the better or rather bigger the effect.
I agree with Rob that you shouldn't overdo it. If you do use Half Dollars try a clip palm if you must. Cheers |
