The Spellbinding Boxes - Vanish and produce a signed coin!!! This beautiful new version of the classic Nest of Boxes is destined to become one of your favorites.
The Effect The Spellbinding Boxes are a true marvel of magic. A spectator�s signed coin is placed under a handkerchief and then held by the spectator.
The magician then removes a golden container from his pocket and it is placed in the spectator�s other hand. Now, with the handkerchief covering the signed coin in one hand, and the gold container in the other hand, the spectator is ready to be amazed!
The magician then takes the handkerchief from the spectator revealing the coin has vanished.
The spectator is then asked to open the gold container, revealing another sealed container inside! The inner container is opened to reveal another container inside, a third container. The third container is opened to reveal a 4th container inside. Now for the climax, inside the 4th container is the spectator�s signed coin.
The Spellbinding Boxes are hand made in brass and then 24k gold plated.
Included with the apparatus is a special black handkerchief ready to perform this pocket miracle!
Manufacturer Says You can perform this trick with either a borrowed U.S. quarter or a half dollar. If you use a quarter, you would utilize all four boxes. If you use a half dollar, simply eliminate the smallest box and use three boxes.

So, I bought (and reviewed) this back in 2006. I still love this effect!
But, as I was going through "My Penguin Magic" discussion section and came across an EXCELLENT idea from somone that takes this to a new level!! I can't reveal it here but you can add something to these to make it a stronger, additional effect!
Otherwise, this is an EXCELLENT effect for beginner magicians and expierenced (IMO). It is fun, and people love the boxes. They are high quality and mine had lasted now for 5 years and running!
Take care and see you in the Discussion section on these!

Here is a really really amazing piece of magic. Ask for a coin, have them sign it, hold it in your hand and it vanishes. It would be an OK trick if it was just in your pocket. Ok, big deal. But inside of a container? A little bit better. But once you start opening box after box you'll see them getting a little more freaked out each time. This trick is actually very easy to perform and doesn't even require a lot of practice.

Fooled me bad.

The demo fooled me big time! So as soon as I could afford it I got hold of this trick. It is indeed a powerful little trick and I love performing it because it is pretty easy.
The one downside is that it takes up a fair bit of pocket space which, as a walkaround magician, I don't like. But if pocket space isn't an issue in your performances/environment then theres no reason you shouldn't get this trick.

As a beginner in magic this was one of my first tricks. It was demonstrated extremely well and took a very short time to become profecient (I like quick and easy). It always gets a big reaction. I wuld recommend it highly. However, over a period of time the gimick loosened up and just the other day broke. Hopefully I can get another gimick without totally purchasing the entire trick again.
