Encyclopedia of Coin Sleights: VOLUME 2 / DVD

This is the second volume of Michael Rubinstein’s definitive guide to modern coin magic, focusing on advanced vanishes, professional loads, and a deep exploration of the Spellbound effect (coin changes).

Rubinstein, known as one of the world’s foremost coin sleight masters, teaches classics alongside his own ingenious variations and original creations.

More Vanishes

The chapter provides a thorough study of the highly deceptive Retention Pass, covering the classic move plus variations by masters like Ken Krenzel and Herb Zarrow.

Loads

Featured loads include the classic L’Homme Masque Load and the Vernon Load, alongside several of Rubinstein’s own original contributions like the versatile Fingertip Load and Snap Load. You’ll also learn the visual Silverdust Production (Ben Harris).

Spellbound Moves (Coin Changes)

This extensive section is dedicated entirely to the art of changing one coin into another. It features essential handling by Dai Vernon (Standard Change One & Two), plus variations from Mendoza and Dingle. Rubinstein provides a wealth of unique, practical changes, including the Impromptu Touch Change, Strike Change, Soft Change, and the highly visual Blow Change. You’ll also learn the Stone Slap Change and Rubinstein’s multi-phase routine, Spellbound 9333.
