Mark Goodman did eventually get in touch with me and sent his e-book. It has good content. I have performed Minted once and it went over well. With more practice of the presentation, I think it will be a great addition to my tricks. The book is written as if the magician is using British coinage, but he does address using American coinage too. I made a couple simple adjustments that streamline the effect to suit me and the coins that I usually have with me. It is a fun one to perform.
While this is unsolicited advice, I am going to go ahead and give it. It helped me in learning the effects to record myself reading through the patter of the effect and going through the motions in order to better remember the flow of the effect. Magic involves a number of subtleties that make or break an effect and more still is that the case in mentalism. Just reading the effect made it difficult to keep in mind all of the subtleties that contribute to the success of the effect. Enjoyed the book!
