Butter Coin by Alex Lourido - The Ultimate Utility Coin! This coin allows you to perform all the moves that once required a Flipper Coin, Rub Away Coin, and the Folding Coin!
The Effect Imagine: taking a SIGNED coin from a spectator and before their eyes, dropping it onto a glass-topped table. Amazingly, the signed coin is seen to apparently melt through the glass and fall into your waiting hand under the table!
Imagine: Without any awkward or cumbersome moves having the ability to OPENLY make three coins jump from one hand to the other, one by one, all while the coins are in plain sight. Three Fly, anyone?
Imagine no longer. You can perform these miracles, and many more, with Alex Lourido's Butter Coin. This coin allows you to perform all the moves that once required a Flipper Coin, Rub Away Coin, and the Folding Coin! And it allows you to perform these feats easily and more effectively.

The Butter Coin is a great concept. A lot of us are familiar with the folding coin or flipper coin but who wants to carry around a whole bunch of gimmicked coins all the time. With this coin you will only need to carry one. The quality of the coin is actually pretty good, so it will last you a long time. Like all gimmicks though, they will eventually have to be replaced once they are used for a long time. If you are tired of tying to decide what coin to bring, get this one and you can have it all.

I really wanted to like this...

but I just can't. I was really disappointed with this. I am not big into coin gaffs, but this looked too amazing to pass up. unfortunately it just doesn't do it for me. I pull it out of my "magical mistakes" drawer every once in a while to see if my opinion has changed, but all it does it bring back the regrets that I have for buying it. I would suggest Johnny Wong's Super triple coin instead, also available from Penguin.

This is a solid, well made coin that has several purposes. It accomplishes things that you would normally need a shell or goshman pinch hands of steel to accomplish. ADD to cart to get the most visual coin through glass table ever!

Stoned Magician here... I feel it's very worth the money. The coin fekes I use are Butter Coin, Expanded Shell, Super Expanded Shell, Cig Thru Coin, Hook Coin, & I use to use a flipper. I had one for 2 years and decided to toss it on Ebay cuz this Butter Coin is MORE practical... And allowed me to do Coin Bite again... The NORMAL Coin Bites dont work well. Never did for me.
