Mmmmm definitely interesting but it does seem a bit limited at the moment I guess playing around with different bottles and coin may help. Great review mate!

Yes, I give you what works best for me but I also cover the different routes you can take regarding different coin/bottle combos. Americans can use US Pennie’s and dimes in glass Mexican coke bottles (there are a few different kinds of glass coke bottles so you’ll need to experiment…the ones found at Chipotle work for Pennie’s and find ones in Walmart/target that work with dimes) corona light/premiere/extra/non alcoholic, coronita, etc, Modelo, I use La Gritona Tequila mini bottles with dimes and it works perfectly for an impossible souvenir (also great to carry in your pockets easily for walkaround), glass water bottles, Kona, as well as Miller, Bud etc. Hakutsuru draft Sake bottles work with a US quarter perfectly as well for the first method. I’ll have an upgrade kit available on P3 soon with additional variations, handlings, tips, ideas, troubleshooting/care etc. Hope this helps & thank you for the lovely review🙏🏼🙏🏼

Thanks for the extra insight for people and thanks for the comments too, it’s much appreciated. I’m envious of the US market for this as it seems readily available for the trick over there, a bit harder for the UK but still do-able with the right setup.

A Singapore 10 cent piece works with a corona and a 5p works with a coke bottle. I did not develop this in the UK, so my experience is limited with those coins. Think of it as a treasure hunt of sorts. I’ve done most of this obsessive work for you already, it will just take a little extra experimenting if you do happen to be using foreign coins. Also a Canadian coin, a Mexican coin, an Auk coin, & Indian coins work. If I tried to provide a list of every possible bottle/coin combo that works, it would be a nightmare that never ends well. But it is very possible for foreign magi!

[@michaeljohnauthentic]

I’m confident there is a foreign combo that is just as practical as the American version. I’m sorry I don’t live there to discover what that combo is exactly, but I’m curious what people find! You might even try getting your hands on American Pennie’s by ordering them online etc and use a presentational angle to justify having them in play. I also use US dimes quite a bit as well for this. I think the suspicion of a tricky US penny/dime/quarter etc being used in a foreign country for this is eliminated when they keep it as a souvenir. But of course it is better to just use coins readily available to you.

Yeah the possibilities are endless for coins and bottles and doing the research for all coins and bottles in all counties would take a hell of a lot of time. I suppose it would be a good excuse for holidays to travel the world and try them all out haha!
