This coin should suffice for most basic flipper coin routines. With the word "Pro" in the name I
hoped for higher quality. The fact it is a gimmick coin can be seen from a reasonable distance if
you aren't careful and the advertised "real edge" is not as convincing as I was hoping for. I still
use this coin for some great effects, but it's not suitable for some of the "in the spectators
hands" routines I was hoping to try out.

This is a decent gaff that can be used for a variety of high impact effects including vanishes,
productions, penetrations, coins across, etc. The re-milled edges makes the opened gaff appear more
natural, and allows for a spectator to hold the flipper coin by its edges, ala Eric Jones'
Impossible Coins Across (Extension of Me). This gaff loses two stars because the cut and re-milling
can be seen by spectators who are "burning" your hands. I do not use this coin in settings with
full lighting, just bars and dimly lit restaurants, at which I've never had the gaff detected.
This is a great tool to add to your collection, but be aware that in bright lighting, some
spectators may be able to spot the gimmick.

forgot to mention that this coin lay on a flat surface, such as on a table or on your hand, with out
something having to be on top of it!

I recieved this coin gaff today in the mail. Boy, am I happy with it. It is great quality! On a
normal flipper coin the edges of the second coin aren't real, and the coin cant lay in your hand or
be put down onto a table. But this one has real edges on both of the coins. This is my first flipper
coin and I am very pleased with my purchase. And don't be daunted by the size. You definently get
what you paid for here, as this coin is amazing. Very reccomended.

got this gaff after a long wait of 6 months almost and looking at the mixed review of the previous
customers i felt that i should get this gaff. and i am very much satisfied with the quality of this
gaff.its quality can be compared with the leader coin gaff makers like schoolcrafts and lassens.
The gimmick looks and feels great. The problem is that the elastic broke not long after I received
it. Apparently this comes with the territory, since Tango enclosed three replacement bands with the
product. However, who wants to have to keep repairing a gimmick? And if the product can be
expected to break so easily, oughtn't they to include more replacement bands? It just seems to me
that for nearly $70, a large sum of money, this should be much more durable than it is.
This is a really really good product.
Perfect made, it looks like a true coin!
Easy open-up
and flip very good!
Its a little light than the other coin but works great!
For the price of this coin I was expecting better quality. The cut is awful, half of it can be seen
from a mile away (not really) but it is very obvious indeed, it can't be layed on the table without
noticing that there's something wrong with the coin. I am really dissapointed with it! About the
mechanics, well the're ok. But I was certainly expecting it to be a high quality coin and it is not!
I'd like to return it or get a quality replacement! Im feel like I wasted my money as I got this
coin to use it in a routine where the expectator has to get the coin in his hands for a moment and
this coin does not meet the minumum quality to pass for a normal one that close (not even for that
short moment)
