Alexis' Reviews #22 - Mirage Coin Set Extreme Edition by Craig Petty

[@carlpowers7291]

That’s a wonderful review. When I first heard you mention the price I was concerned about that. Now I have changed my mind. I like the fact that it does that some “materials “ to make repairs if needed or rather when needed. Thank you so much

[@AlexisReviews]

Thank you so much :)

Id like to see the ixf review and vegas dream honestly. Glad to have found this channel. Smilesotheylikeyou

I’ll try to get a Vegas Dream review! Thanks a lot 🙏

[@Erdnase23]

Fantastic review. Lovely to hear in good English, rather than the KZbin auto-translate subtitles which I’ve been using to watch the Magic Dream et al stuff.

[@AlexisReviews]

Ahah thank you so much for your nice comment

[@mathmusicstructure]

It seems like most of the value comes from the teaching in the end. As you say there is lots of competition for coin sets. I think I would rather spend the same money buying the equivalent Kueppers coins direct. Also if you want a fl***er it seems like the JB Mason NGF is something to consider, and perhaps his Triception set. Thanks for the review!

[@AlexisReviews]

Yup, have to agree on that :)

Good performance

Merci bcp, monsieur. Formidable!!!

[@AlexisReviews]

Thanks a lot! Hope it helps

[@carlpowers7291]

Could you please recommend a coin magic set more suitable for beginning with coins?

[@AlexisReviews]

Imagination Coin by Garrett Thomas is a wonderful routine for beginners! :D

[@CornerEagle]

"Sucker Punch" by Mark Southworth is basically a collection of coin-gaffs made into poker chips, which is reflected in the quality (they're made of plastic) but also the price (you're paying for plastic!) and comes with a detailed video tutorial by Eric Jones. I really liked it as an intro to coin magic.

You think Tango is better than Roy K.?

[@AlexisReviews]

Well I think Roy is a bit above but not by much!

If a beginner what’s best version

Some coins, a shell and David Roth DVD :D

What years do the US 'silver' coins have? I.e. are they pre 1965 silver, or the later clad/mostly-not-silver coins?

[@AlexisReviews]

Later, they’re pretty new like 2000´s so definitely not silver 😊

[@IHateYoutubeHandles615]

@@AlexisReviews Thanks!

[@petematthews8368]

the Kennedy halfs are not the old silver coins. They are the sandwich newer regular half dollars

[@vinodfurtado]

Any other coin set that you recommend.

[@AlexisReviews]

Vegas Dream by Bill Cheung, a great one! 😉

[@PreservationEnthusiast]

Please can you be a bit more specific about what exactly we get in the set. If we get a shell then say it's a shell rather than being cryptic like "you get a gimmick which fits very well". Or if it's an expanded shell then say so, or if it's a flipper coin or folding coin just say so. I mean we all know what these things are. If we are paying a lot of money, we want to know what we are getting. Being cryptic does not help the review.

[@AlexisReviews]

I'll try in my future ones :)

[@ExploreThe50]

Could you write the names of the other coin sets you referenced at the end of the video. Thanks

[@AlexisReviews]

I definately will ! ☺️

[@Davidblaine18]

@@AlexisReviews where??

[@Davidblaine18]

Why not FOUR HEARTS?

[@AlexisReviews]

It’s not something I’ll use so that’s why only 3 hearts

[@TAROTAI]

@6:40 There is no good reason to put the "copper" coin in the purse & then take it out again? This is illogical and an exchange of coins (rigged purse) becomes transparent

[@AlexisReviews]

It’s justified during the course of the routine, because you say the point is to put the coin into the purse. But you can use the presentation you want ☺️

[@TAROTAI]

@@AlexisReviews I understand the logic you are proffering & it makes sense to a certain, shall we say, mind-set, but by _actually_ placing the coin *in* the pouch . . . this action tilts the suggestion toward a duplicate coin - voila & merci pour votre réponse qualifiée - c'est quand même une super truc - meilleurs vœux - salut!
