Anyone have a copy of the basic instructions for this? I've probably had every gaff ever made but I can't remember what to do with my set of coins.
If you want to email a pdf, scan of something... just PM me for my email address. |

See Bobo. Although I could be wrong, I think Al Goshman, whose version appears in Bobo, was the originator of this effect.

Thanks,
Yes... I have BoBo's book. Never thought about that. |

That's a great compilation by Lawrence O, inigmntoya. Thanks for re-posting it.
The Goshman routine does involve a move that many, including me, find difficult. |

I'll second SAMOYA. Solid routine.

SAMOYA is a fun routine.
I also like the Latta Routine. |

Remember, SAMOYA requires a special Sun Moon set. The copper shell needs to be expanded.

All are priced very reasonably and I believe that he still has some Ike sets left. In my opinion the biggest issue around this is the fact that Rob Thompson's product page for the Samoya DVD doesn’t mention this at all. Since no gaffed coins are available with the DVD I think he should at least mention that you need something beyond a "normal" Sun and Moon set. But, hey: that's me! Jim |

Another vote for Samoya. I'm NOT a coin guy, but this sure makes me look like one.

Great suggestion by Jim!
Todd Lassen's Ike dollar Sun and Moon sets sold on his commercial site is an exellent bargain and sets you up perfectly to perform Samoya the way it should be performed. This set has his name on it so you get the very same highest quality.
To see a difficult thing lightly handled gives the impression of the impossible.

Todd Lassen sells his sun and moon with the matching additional coins. Jonathan Todd Excelsior
