Money Magic Tricks

Book excerpt: It's one thing to learn the mechanics of a magic trick, and quite another to entertain and mystify your audience. You'll master both at the same time with 64 money tricks involving coins and bills--and the magician's professional banter and diversionary tactics. Tricks range from simple ones to delight the kids to advanced ones to fool sophisticated adults: Make coins disappear and reappear all over the room, change places with each other in plain sight, sneak about while hidden under cards. Cut up somebody's bill and put it back together, spin a coin in the air as you toss it from the palm of your hand, and drop a coin onto a table so it lands on its edge.
