Problem Solving



Sometimes it takes very little to make a trick practical. In this case the good ol' classic by which coins appear under a card one at a time.

Problem: If you use no soft surface the secret placing of the coin will make an unwanted sound. If a coin is under the card, the card appears to "float".

Solution: I use no card anymore, which often cause motivation problems. I use the purse. Classic purse frame style. In the purse are some more coins, so putting the purse on a hard surface will naturally create a sound, by the coins inside and the purse frame hitting the surface. That sound naturally covers any secret load. And no "floating" is going on.

soft coins still make noise if you put them on a hard surface. They only don't sound if you rub them against each other. But you know that....
