The Moving Hole Effect has been popular in the magic community
for decades; almost everyone is familiar with it. Simply put, it is an
effect where a magician's finger drags a small hole on an object, much
like dragging an icon on a touch screen, and the hole magically moves to
a different position.
Magicians are eager to create various
moving hole gaffs, and there can be dozens of versions of the most
popular card moving hole, not to mention other versions using credit
cards, wooden sticks, keys, or any other object that can be drilled or
has a hole.
Artisan Coin & Jimmy Fan are particularly
interested in the coin moving hole effect, which dates back to the
1980s. After studying it for a long time, we thought the routine could
be more complete, practical, and interesting, so the Crazy Chinese Coins was born.
Crazy Chinese Coins
is a series of moving hole effects using the coin holes of ancient
Chinese coins. The magician shows four ancient coins, and the coin holes
move from the center of the coins to the edge, jump from one coin to
another, or even duplicate the holes over an entire coin.
The
routine has been carefully polished by Jay Wang and Jimmy Fan. Each step
involves audience participation, and they can feel the effects with
their hands. After the performance, all the coins can be given to the
audience for inspection or further appreciation.
To better show
the details of the holes and make the effect more realistic, Jimmy Fan
used a high-cost metal molding process to produce the gaffs, instead of
drilling. The entire set of gaffs consists of seven parts, made with
seven sets of molds: coin shell, ordinary coin, off-center-hole coin,
double-hole coin, no-hole coin, large-hole coin, and seven-hole coin.
The
combination of these parts provides much freedom to create your own
effects or routines, in addition to the full routine we provide.
