Modern Magic: A Practical Treatise on the Art of Conjuring
·
Professor Hoffmann
227
CHANGE
4.--For
this
change
you
must
have
the
substitute
palmed
in
the
right
hand,
and
take
the
marked
coin
between
the
thumb
and
second
finger
of
the
left.
Then
by
Pass
4
appear
to
take
it
in
the
right
hand,
and
at
the
proper
moment
exhibit
the
substitute,
which
you
have
already
in
that
hand.
CHANGE
5.--Have
the
substitute
palmed
in
your
right
hand,
and
hold
the
marked
coin
openly
on
the
palm
of
the
left.
Pick
up
the
genuine
coin
with
the
right
hand,
at
the
same
moment
releasing
the
palmed
substitute,
which
will
accordingly
fall
into
the
left
hand,
the
fingers
of
which
should
be
held
slightly
hollowed,
the
better
to
conceal
it.
Show
the
marked
coin
in
the
right
hand,
and
say,
“You
have
seen
me
take
up
this
coin
visibly,
I
will
make
it
return
invisibly,”
or
make
some
other
appropriate
observation.
Close
the
left
hand,
make
Pass
1
or
2
with
the
right
hand,
with
a
motion
towards
the
left,
but
without
bringing
the
hands
near
together.
The
marked
coin
will,
after
the
pass,
be
concealed
in
your
right
palm.
Immediately
opening
your
left
hand,
you
show
the
substitute,
which
the
audience
believe
to
be
the
original
which
they
have
just
seen.
There
are
many
other
changes;
indeed,
they
are
almost
too
numerous
to
describe.
If
you
are
able
to
palm
and
to
make
the
various
passes
neatly,
you
will
readily
invent
methods
of
“ringing”
for
yourself;
in
the
meantime,
you
will
find
that
the
above
will
answer
every
necessary
purpose,
so
far
as
coin
tricks
are
concerned.
