Magic Wishing Coins Antique Silver - 12 Coins
Alan Wong
(Based on 1 review)
These are great palming coins for manipulation, perfect for miser's dream or pulling a coin out of someone's ear. The value of this coin is ONE MAGIC WISH. When you magically produce a magic coin from thin air, it comes with the power to give someone a magical wish.
On the other side is an original radiating Lucky Star design with seven embedded stars inspired by a mystic crop circle pattern first sighted on July 6, 2003 at Avebury in U.K. Surrounding this powerful image it reads MAY YOUR WISH COME TRUE around the edge of the coin.
The coins are electroplated and made of steel so that they can be attracted by a magnet. This will give you a lot of advantage and possibilities! Just put a magnet in your pocket and the coin will stick to your pants, elbow or anywhere you like!
Imagine to palm 16 of these large size coins easily in one hand and they are still under 2cm thick! Maximum load for miser's dream with minimum effort!
Now comes with a dozen (12 ) Magic Wishing Coins in a durable nylon drawstring bag.
Available in Silver, Gold and Antique Silver colors finish (3 options)
You will always have the power to grant someone a magic wish!

Overview
12 thin magnet coins, no instructions,Effect
None. These are coins that you can use in your miser's dream routine, or just pulling a coin out of someone's ear, etc.Method
See effect.Product Quality
The coins are well made. The have nice look and feel to them, and the drawstring bag is well made, etc. Not much to see here.Ad Copy Integrity
The ad copy is a little weird. It makes a whole bunch of claims about the coins giving magic powers. For example: "The value of this coin is ONE MAGIC WISH. When you magically produce a magic coin from thin air, it comes with the power to give someone a magical wish."Obviously I don't think they're trying to con us into believing such claims. However, with claims like that, I would expect some sort of instructions included with the coins to give us a sense of how to incorporate such non-sense.
Lastly, it makes a claim that you can "palm 16 of these large size coins easily in one hand and they are still under 2cm thick!"
Surprisingly, a stack of 16 coins is exactly 2cm thick. That's about 3/4 of a inch for us Yanks. However, I'm a bit dubious of the claim that one can palm 16 coins. I've got no-so-small hands, and I couldn't palm 12 of them, but I can barely palm one coin, so I may not be a good judge of this claim. 12 coins weight about 3.9 ounces. I don't know if that's too heavy, too light, or just right.
Final Thoughts
- Effect: None.
- Method: None.
- Product Quality: Excellent.
- Ad Copy Integrity: Weird. Solid-ish.
Products like this are simple to review. They're coins. They're about the size of half dollars. They'll stick to a magnet. They're interesting looking.
It mentions miser's dream in the ad copy, but typically when doing miser's dream, it's not a super close up effect and so nobody's really gonna get a close look at them.
If I did miser's dream rather than Miser's Nightmare (from Gemstones - Sorry not sorry about the shameless plug), I might use these since I already have them. However, I'm not sure if I would pay $36 for 12 coins. That's $3 bucks a coin. You can get coins of the same size from your bank for 50 cents a coin.
Maybe they're something to use for your standard coin routines. But what's the advantage of using them over a half-dollar? Magnetic? Thinner? Shininess? Design? Maybe.
If they weren't so expensive, I'd carry them around and give them away to strangers when an opportunity presents itself to "do something" because they do make a nice memorable gift.
There are less expensive (yet just as effective) options. But the price is subjective. If people pay you a thousand bucks a night to do miser's dream, then it might not only be worth it to buy this, but to give them away. That's your call. Not mine.
Final Verdict:
4 Stars with a Stone Status of gem.
