🎩✨ The Invincible Coins ✨🎩

Ladies and gentlemen, let me show you something quite mysterious. A brand new trick following The Coin & Key Illusion Box.
I have here three ordinary coins... nothing special about them.
 

Now, I'll place them carefully into this little case—snug and safe. And just to make things more interesting, let's cover it with a simple sheet of paper. No trapdoors, no mirrors—just paper.

Now, here's where things get strange. I have three pencils. Sharp, solid, and ready to do the impossible.

Watch closely as I push this pencil straight through the case, right where the coins are!

One... two... three! All pencils have pierced the case—and, supposedly, the coins inside. But coins aren't supposed to like that, are they?

Let’s take a look.

And there they are... the coins—completely unharmed. Not a scratch, not a mark. Still shiny, still whole. 
Magic? Maybe. Or maybe... just a trick of the mind.

This trick works with different types of coins —  1 Pound coin, a 1 Euro coin (I’ve tested it with), and even a US Quarter.

Based on the illusion from "Soft Coins" by Keiji Takahashi (1981)


       Assembly Instructions

• You’ll need a ~93 mm piece of filament (standard 1.75 mm diameter) to connect the two hinges.

  

• Carefully press down the bottom hinge plate, as shown in the picture, so you can slide the inner, movable plate into place. Make sure the side of the inner plate shown in the image is facing downward.

  

  

  

   !!SPOILER ALERT!!

   

   

  🎩✨How to Perform the Trick✨🎩

   

• Cut the piece of paper longer than the magic box, so it covers the part where the coin slides out.
• Use one of your fingers to support the coin at the back—the one that’s partially sticking out of the case—while you push the pencils through the paper.
• Once the pencils have been removed, tilt the device slightly so the coins slide back into place. Then you can open the magic box and reveal the untouched coins.
