I am about to take the plunge and buy a morgan dollar coin set with ]. It is going to be expensive. My question is do any of you have a certain way you carry your coins as not to lose them while performing? I know the chances of dumping one out of an empty jacket pocket is unlikely, but I have to say I am nervous carrying around a $500 coin set while table hopping. Any suggestions?

Ditto on the purses.
Also I use a dollar sized Jim Z box that will accommodate the [. My just "regular silver coins" are the most expensive items in my routines. That and the 40 years of the development of the Dr. Laugh Programs.

I definitely plan to use a purse of some sort. But what I am worried about is when I have them in my pockets going from one table to the next.
Harris, what is the Jim Z box?

A prurse of some type is the best way to secure the ci=oins. But for table hopping and since it seems that there is a reluctance to use a puse of some kind you might want to wear pants with a watch pocket. This will isolate the coins.

Onasaka purse is what I carry my sets in.
It would be hard to lose it I would think. Todd |

Paul--A Jim Z box is a reference to the coin boxes that Mr. Zachary made. It can refer to an Okito, Boston or Slot box.

Purse! I like the Goshman design with the clasp on the inside. When I'm wearing jeans I tend to keep it in the tiny pocket on the right side. Some slacks also have this small "ticket pocket." If I have to carry a loose coin to obtain, this is where it usually goes.

If course even with use of a coin box and or purse one needs to place them four Your routine
Example 3 coins in main right pants pocket 3 matching coins in coin box in small "coin pocket" Inside the right pants pocket. 3 contrasting same size coins in left pocket Effect 3 coins dumped out of box Short routine with the 3 coins Ending with the coins being changed to the contrasting color And have a spectator open up the coin box to find the original coins.
