However, I also believe that different colored bills could be used too, as long as your careful with the alignment of the gimmick. Just to be up front, I've only used US currency, so I'm using my best judgement when I say that colored bills may be used. That's also why I say that it may be a little more challenging if your not careful with the alignment. I don't think different colored bills are totally impossible, but rather just easier with similar colored bills. There's other effects/routines on the DVD where contrasting colored bills would actually add to the effect. Such routines are the "High Roller","Funny Money" and the "Homing Bills". I hope this helps!

Thanks for the honest reply,Unfortunately the bills in the UK differ in both size and colour so it's probably not the best choice if using UK currency.

It looks to me a bit like The Changeling by mark lavelle and titanas that came out a couple of years ago. I ended up not using it much because it was all a bit angly with different coloured uk and euro bills. Is this similar?

I'm usually purely a sleight of hand guy, but after seeing John perform this and how easy it was to make, it was a no brainier. I've been doing this everyday for a month now, it's in my wallet all the time and it's a go to effect that's a real worker. It's super easy, looks like camera magic, and happens in their hands. Can't go wrong with this one guys.

I would like to know what the difference is between this and Bill Test by Erik Casey as they look identical?

This looks like the Al Cohen Bill Change from years ago. Some added ideas, but the change in the spectators hand is the same. Al won't mind he is retired years ago.

I'm not much for 'arts and crafts', but this looks like it may be worth the effort - so have placed my order.

I saw the main effect, Cool Cash, at Magic Live as well. For those who have asked about Slow Motion Transpo (or 21st Century Transpo) by Eugene Burger - the gimmick is essentially the same, although it uses a 1-5, where the 5 ends up in the spectator's hand. The main difference in the main effect is the handling, and there was one moment I was really impressed with where both bills are cleanly displayed right before going into their hand (and AFTER the gimmick has been set, if you know what I mean). I am sure the other parts of the project are great as well, but as a long time user of Eugene's bill transpo, I bought this just to compare handlings of Cool Cash and Eugene's version. I think it'll have been worth it to have gotten both.

Hi Guys,
To clarify, the "Cool Cash" is the name of the DVD, as well as the name of the first effect on the DVD. The "Cool Cash" DVD includes a total of 8 different bill effects/routines, and a variety of different/unique gimmicks. To answer your question about the differences between the "Bill Test" by Erik Casey and "Cool Cash". They're similar in that the're both bill transpositions, however, they use different gimmicks and handlings. The "Cool Cash" transposition uses the "McCallister gimmick", while the "Bill Test" uses a gimmick similar to the "Atomic Bills" Transposition. The "Atomic Bills" transposition is also included on the "Cool Cash" DVD. The "Atomic Bills" precedes the "Bill Test", as the "Atomic Bills" was first released back in 2005 as a stand alone effect. Then was later re-released on the "Above Top Secret" DVD in 2008 with aditional ideas. The differences between the "Atomic Bills" and the "Bill Test" is that, the gimmick used in "Atomic Bills" allows you to be very flexible while having multiple choices as to what bills are used, without having to carry additional gimmicks. So, that means that your NOT restricted to using two specific bills that match specific gimmicks, but rather, you can use ANY denomination bills, as long as just one of the two bills matches the gimmick. The "Atomic Bills" uses only ONE gimmick for ALL bill denominations! In my opinion, having to carry multiple gimmicks to use different denomination bills as in "Bill Test" takes this concept backwards. With the "Atomic Bills", it's very easy to make sure that one of the bills that you borrow is a 1, while the other bill can be anything like a 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, or 100. This is not so, with "Bill Test". The basic handling is different in both routines. The "Cool Cash" DVD also includes a variety of different changes and handling ideas, as well as other effects, changes, routines, and gimmicks. Maybe Erik could jump on here and tell us what the other differences are. The "Cool Cash" DVD is a collection of various effects, routines, changes, and gimmicks, all using paper bills. There are 8 different "impromptu" anytime/anywhere bill effects and routines in all. Here's a short description of the other effects/routines on the DVD...... COOL CASH: Two bills, of different denominations, visibly change places between the magicians hand and spectators hand. COOL CASH looks incredibly visual, impossible, and clean. ATOMIC BILLS: Two bills, of different denominations visibly change places between the magicians hand and the spectators hand. The bills can be borrowed, signed, and you end totally clean. DOUBLE ATOMIC BILLS: Two bills, of different denominations, magically change places between the hands of two spectators. The bills can be signed, and you end totally clean. TIME IS MONEY: Two bills, of different denominations, visible change places between the magicians hand. Then the bill held by the magician vanishes and reappears under the spectators watch. FUNNY MONEY: A borrowed bill visibly changes to any other bill of any denomination or currency. The bill can then be handed out and you end totally clean. HIGH ROLLER: A borrowed one dollar bill magically changes into a ten dollar bill, then a twenty, then a fifty, and finally a one hundred dollar bill! You end totally clean and the one hundred dollar bill can be immediately handed out. HOMING BILLS: An easy to do bill transpo, using borrowed bills, and NO gimmicks. The SMACK BILL CHANGE: An instant, visual bill change which happens in a split second, in the spectators hand! You will also find a long list of proper credits on the "Cool Cash" DVD. Here's what just a few top pro's have said.... "Cool Cash gives you even more options in your everyday carry magic. A must have!" -Garrett Thomas "A perfect compilation of impromptu bill effects. Powerful, visual, in their hands. Great stuff!" -Jon Armstrong "A clean, in-the-hands version of one of my favorites: the classic 5 and 1 transpo. Cool Cash has some great visual applications." -Kainoa Harbottle I hope this helps!
