I just bought this set at Magic Live 2017. I already own the Johnny Wong set and was very pleased to the point of wanting another set for back up. But I was hoping for a deal. $140 for a set I already own is a bit steep. (My brother gifted me half the price as a present.) Then I went to the Steven's Magic Emporium booth and was blown away at the quality of the coin set. When I saw JJ's antiqued version, I was more sold than ever, and at $90, they couldn't take my money fast enough. These coins look GREAT, and REAL! This set will be in my show and the Wong set will be the back up! These coins are so beautiful. And JJ was awesome to talk to.
Now the downside, if you can call it that. They are not for beginners. They will talk if you don't know how to handle them. They do come with an optional Teflon sticker to curb the sound if you wish. You will have to ink in the Japanese Kanji writing and get it just right. And if you do, they look spectacular! JJ prefers to not ink them. The brass will age naturally and the coins will look better over time. Another reason I do not use the Teflon stickers. They will also talk less over time as they smooth out. The Wong coins will need a replacement sticker over time. Final conclusion: both coin set will do what you need them to do. But the JJ set look way better and will look even better over time, and for $50 less! You don't get as much instruction as you do if you buy from Paul Richards or Johnny Wong that come with a DVD. But it won't be an issue if you already know what to do with them. -Migz

Glad some of you caught John out at MAGIC Live, and had the opportunity to meet him and to see his work live. And yes, it's all great craftsmanship and functionality.
His name is really getting around and I'm always proud to hear it. ☺️ Good man, Great magic! 😉👍🏽

I know this post just keeps going and going, but that's mostly because ever-so-often, things as to this just keeps getting better and better...
John was just out at Magi-Fest this past weekend and tested out his next big thing as to his wonderful Coin Coalition coin set, and the magicians loved it! He has now made a poker chip the other side of a coin that now also includes beautiful REAL Morgans, and man they are sweet looking with a superb handling to match. He couldn't keep up with the instant demand out there it was so great, but he's back home in his shop now and will be making these gems available to all those who just love the real-feel of silver when it comes to using top quality coins for their magic. And of course, he'll also be still offering these new babies in Ikes and replica Morgans for the folks who want them. He hasn't forgotten you. You can check his website soon, and or tell'em "Mb sent'cha" and shoot him an email at jjurney14@comcast.net www.jjmagiccoins.com

And here's the idea with the Ikes (To also be done with replica Morgans as well) for those that prefer it. They're pretty darn nice too, just quality work at a great price!

Looks great, but why these poker type coins are not on the website shop? What is the prize and can be done with different colors (I always wondering why almost all manufactures make blue/black colors which are not good contrast each other and not for example white/black or light green/black...)

Hi hektor, welcome to the Café...
John will have pics of this up on his website soon, with the prices for all sets. And as to color, actually no one has ever questioned the colors, so you are first to do so, and with that, he can do whatever colors you want. Some people like the casino chips to be all the same color, or two of them the same, whatever. But if you want a different color altogether, just let him know. And mandrax, welcome here, too. And I know what you mean, I'm actually playing with my set right now...Just marvelous! Hey, what reactions are you getting from people so far with it? I really like the play of the routine. John put together a true winner with this all the way around. It's pretty easy to do, packs very small but plays BIG...And once you present it, specs minds are BLOWN!
