MAGGIE'S NIGHT OUT



MAGGIE'S NIGHT OUT

RARE. A close-up "die box" done with a borrowed and marked coin!

A half-dollar is borrowed (or use your own coin) and marked. It is placed into a wooden coin slide for safekeeping. 

Next, show a small box with two doors in the front (looks like a miniature sliding die box). The box is absolutely empty. 

Remove the marked half-dollar from the little slide and place it into the box. Tip the box one way, open the door and show the box empty. "It's on the other side," they say.

Tip the box back, open the other door and show it empty. "It's on the other side." Back and forth. 

They can hear (and even see) the coin sliding. Yet you only open one door at a time, much to the audience's frustration, as they think they've caught you.

Finally, you open both doors, and the coin has vanished. But where could it be? Ask the spectator to pick up the coin slide and see what's inside. Sure enough, it is the marked coin.

A vintage effect produced by Viking-Haenchen Manufacturing about 1985 and off the market for years. Made in the USA and very rare. The people who have this effect don't want to part with it, it's so good!
