Description
I have no real information about this effect. It works and it easy to do.
There is no forcing, but you do use up 2 envelopes each time you perform it. The coins can’t be examined and I’m not sure how convincing it is with the envelopes.
I think if I wanted to perform this I would use a 4 way wallet and the Miller Miracle Wallet would be perfect. This would make the effect more convincing, instantly repeatable, and you would not need to keep making up envelopes. Also I would replace the coins so that they could be examined.
But frankly I’m not sure the effect is worth the effort, so I’m leaving it as is 🙁
Effect: Four different coins are introduced and placed into a wooden box on the table. The spectator selects any coin (no force) and the lid is placed on top.
A handful of empty envelopes are shown and the performer selects one, shows it is clearly empty inside, and seals it. The magician then makes a magical gesture and the lid is lifted and the chosen coin has vanished from the box. The sealed envelope is now shaken and a coin can be heard inside.
The envelope is torn open and inside is the chosen coin returned.
