Coin Magic Spotlight: New York Coin Magic Seminar
The first time I ever experienced that magic “moment” was when I met Dr. Andy at the hospital where my mom worked and he pulled a coin out of my ear, threw it away and made it reappear. I think I was maybe 6 or 7 years old and that was one of the moments that sparked my interest in magic.
I followed the typical path of a budding magician – acquiring magic sets, visiting magic shops and spending money earned from allowances, paper routes and outright begging on anything magic related. Over 30+ years of pursuing this hobby, I’ve acquired numerous mystical boxes with Chinese letters, aluminum pans with secret compartments, trick decks and a countless cornucopia of magical odds and ends (with and without instructions)
Despite all the overflowing boxes of props, library of books and stacks of DVDs that teach a lifetime of magic, the magical moment of Dr. Andy pulling a coin from my ear, vanishing it and making it reappear made a lasting impression. As a magician “in the know”, its hard to experience that magic “moment” again.
Fortunately, I found that magic “moment” again in the New York Coin Magic Seminar collection.
When you first start pursuing coin magic, magicians will typically point you to books such as Bobo’s Coin Magic, Roth’s Expert Coin Magic or Kaufman’s Coin Magic. As videos and DVDs have become the prevalent teaching tool, Ammar’s Easy to Master Money Miracles, Roth’s Expert Coin Magic and Ammar’s Complete Introduction to Coin Magic were often cited.
Today you have a growing set of resources focusing on coin magic including Noblesada’s In the Beginning There Were Coins, Jones’ Metal and Sankey’s Revolutionary Coin Magic DVDs. Today you can even get Bobo’s Modern Coin Magic on DVD. Each of these resources are well worth studying for the coin magic enthusiast. However, its hard to find another series more extensive than the New York Coin Magic Seminar collection.
What is the New York Coin Magic Seminar collection?
The New York Coin Magic Seminar collection is a 16 DVD set dedicated to exploring the art of Coin Magic. For 8 years, Mike Rubinstein, David Roth, and Mike Gallo have hosted a weekend seminar featuring lectures, presentations and workshops on coin magic. Each of these seminars have been captured on film with the effects, lessons and methods taught in excellent detail. With 16 volumes of coin magic, the New York Coin Magic Seminar collection provides a complete collection of coin magic to learn, appreciate and study.
