“The Hopping Halves” is a classic of coin magic for good reason — it remains one of the best-selling coin effects of all time. Now, with Tango Magic’s Inflation, this timeless routine becomes even more deceptive.
You display both sides of an American silver coin and a Chinese brass coin with a hole through it. You remove the silver coin from your hand and place it into your pocket, yet when you open your hand… both coins are still there! You take the brass coin and pocket it, but again, when you open your hand, the two coins have impossibly returned. This sequence is repeated under seemingly impossible test conditions. Finally, you openly remove the silver coin, showing both sides as you place it into your pocket — and when you open your hand, both coins have completely vanished!
Improving a best-selling classic used by professionals and hobbyists for decades is no small feat, but Inflation elevates the effect to a whole new level. If you’ve never performed a coin trick before, you’ll be able to master Inflation. If you’re an experienced coin magician, you’ll appreciate the clever engineering behind it.
Inflation is easy to perform, practical in real-world conditions, fun to use, and guaranteed to fool any audience. Slip it into your pocket, and you’re ready to create a miracle anytime, anywhere. The set includes precision-made coins and comprehensive video instructions.
Available in both US Half Dollar size (Walking Liberty replica) or US One Dollar size coins (Morgan Dollars replica).
