A Florin Spun by Hector Chadwick

The controlled coin toss and its applications to the world of magic and mentalism.

This little book is a treatise on how to control the outcome of a coin toss, and how such an ability might be useful in performance.

Inside, you’ll find descriptions of:

• The controlled coin toss itself – the fundamentals and minutiae of the technique.
• Three variants of a controlled catch – allowing the coin to be called in midair.
• A controlled table spin.
• A gimmicked method – allowing someone else to spin the coin on the table.
• Three example performances, each focusing on a different application of the controlled coin toss.
• A list of further miscellaneous applications.
• An in-depth exploration of the move’s history.
