Who are magicians that do what would be considered “advanced” coin magic?

There are several names you should seek out in your quest to discover advanced coin magic. First and foremost, the late, great David Roth. He is the greatest coin magician who ever lived, and all of his work is worthy of careful study.

You should also seek out the work of Rune Klan, Curtis Kam, and Kainoa Harbottle. All three use advanced techniques, but have not lost sight of what beautiful coin magic ought to look like. Their material (all of it available on Vanishing Inc.) will deliver not only strong magic, but reliable and audience-tested coin magic as well.

Where are the best places to learn “intermediate to advanced” coin magic?

Video provides an extreme advantage in learning difficult coin sleights.

The coin magic downloads we offer on our site make this process easy and affordable.
