The Effect You freely show your spectator an empty beer or pop bottle and, after he examines the blazes out of it, you let HIM hold it by the neck. You now take a Half Dollar and proceed to PUSH IT THROUGH THE SOLID BOTTOM OF THE BOTTLE! The spectator may look into the bottle and jiggle it to verify that the coin is indeed INSIDE THE BOTTLE (which it really is).
As the spectator then looks at the coin resting in the bottom of the bottle, you tell him to place his palm under the bottle. A magic word from you INCREDIBLY causes the coin to again PENETRATE the bottom of the bottle as it falls into the spectators waiting hand! This is great IMPROMPTU magic at parties or at a pub! You can use ANY bottle. Our high-impact routine lifts this effect from an amazing trick to a MIRACLE!

Impressive it is. I used this as a opener it definitively get's people's reaction right away, something so small that fits without bulking your pocket is good. You need refills so keep this in mind once you get it.
Hi. This is your official PenguinMagic reviewer, B_Magic.
This is an alright trick that I think today works better as a coin in bottle than a coin bite. The reason is that the coin bite has been so over exposed and easy to figure out these days after David Blaine did it, where the coin in bottle is less well known. I had a folding half and liked it for a long time because of the size, but after awhile replaced it with a folding quarter because its more common and can be "borrowed."
Be aware that these coins can break and you may need to purchase replacements, or replacement parts, over time.

Half Bottled

This is a really fun trick to do. You just hand out a half dollar quarter for inspection (or borrow one on the rare chance that someone has it). You grab the bottle by neck and tap the coin on the base of the bottle. Then you slam the coin into the bottle and it instantly penetrates the glass (or plastic). The cool part about this is that the spectator can even hold the bottle. Afterwards, you simple shake the coin around to show that there is no way the coin can fit, and then the spectator can watch the coin pass back through the glass. When you are done, just hand everything out for inspection.
This is one of those rare pieces of magic that people will remember you for. I used to do this trick with a quarter and it's always gotten good reactions. Everything borrowed, everything returned. Buy this if you get a chance.

Good

I felt that for one trick that's so old, it's not really worth the money, but the gimmick is great. You are receiving a multi functional gimmick that will last a long time. If it breaks, replacement is a cinch. I would tell you to just go for it and buy it if you can.
