also this by magicmandan
'm always responding to people who are asking for advice on a purchase of the Biteout Quarter and telling them to get 3 in One instead. Let me tell you all why.

Here are the features of the Biteout Quarter:
Bite out effect
Coin thru Bottle effect

Here are the features of the 3 in One Quarter:
Bite out effect
Coin thru Bottle effect
Flipper Coin effect
Laser cutting - better quality - more durable, more invisible

Notice how the 3 in One does everything Biteout does and more? Get it?

Now, which did you see David Blaine perform? The Biteout Quarter. Why would David Blaine not use the obviously better 3 in One Quarter? Because laser cutting wasnt really available back when he did his special! So yes, the Biteout quarter has the bragging rights of being David Blaine's coin. But had he performed a few years earlier, I can guarantee that he'd use the 3 in One.

So, thiis is the post I will reference anyone who wants the Biteout Quarter to, because I am TRYING to steer you guys to better quality.

Thanks.

Doesnt the 3-in-1 not look like you bit it out? I have the bite out quarter and it really looks like you bit out a piece.

It is all perspective. I think it looks better than the bite out. The bite out looks too perfect to me. the jagged edge of the 3 in 1 is what makes it look real.

The edge on the bite out quarter beats the 3 in 1 quarter. Spectator tested, I have used both.

So have I. But who has "Perfect" teeth. The machining is WAY to perfect to look real. The effect has only been questioned when I use a bite out. The spec always say "that does not even match" the 3 in 1 never brings it in to question because it is not "perfect"

It's not like the spectators are going to think you actually bit a chunk out of a quarter. They are going to love the illusion though.

Well, it's mostly self working, but there's a little slieght of hand involved if you borrow someones half dollar, (or quarter, whichever one you order). Hope it helps :)
