I like it. As you mentioned it might be better with no word/patter

Nice music and simplicity of plot.

My brain went to see it as part of a longer piece with the song, Ebony and
ivory. The ending being either the coins come together in one hand or
As one, molded together.

Your video shows another use of crimp. Not just another vanish. From one place comes many
Possibilities.

Now, if you can just do it in a spectator's hand!

Just kidding -- your beautiful work and contributions always pushed me forward

Well done Vinny!

I can do this is the spectastors hand it is slightly different but it works
ill mnake a demo and put it up

Quick tricks can always be a good thing. I'm curious though how the silver coin getting slid off the back of the hand is motivated. It seems the method elicits the slide off the back of the hand, but it just doesn't seem natural. Why not just pick the coin up, or have the spectator pick it up?

I agree. You could have the spectator pick up the coin, then do an empty shuttle pass into the right hand to reveal the copper coin.

That's erxcellent advice
I smetimes just pick up the coin ,but having a spectator pick up the coin ill have to try it I like that idea

I used to do something similar, but using thumb clip. I just gave it a go using the crimp and here's what it looks like:

Kind of a L'homme Masque load from Crimp and feels slightly more natural. What do people think about removing a coin in that way?

Making this I realised I haven't used a retention vanish in ages!

Yep, I've been doing it sorta like that for years now and mentioned it in the "Fav Quick Tricks" string here.

I put it in print, in my KABOOM! download and called it the, Copper/Silver Twist, mostly because of the slick loading at the end of things. In mine, the "twist" is a quick, flowing action purposely back & forth, that gives a nice magical show of the hands before you expose the perplexing transposition of the two coins.

Also, in the download with several other of my "Quickie-Trickys," I included an explanation video of it and of all the effects with the package. And I'm very proud to say it's still up on Vinny's website, and there's a demo of me doing it there amongst the other effects.

Yes I am guessing many of us workers have developed our own take on this plot.

As they say there are many roads to Rome.

Mb Kaboom some great little quickies.
these effects kills the lay audience
as magicians yeah we can tear things apart. but this is not what it is all about it is entertainment.
