Frank Drobina's Coin Routine

Frank Drobina

Several years ago, while attending the Texas Association of Magicians Convention in San Antonio, Texas, I saw this effect for the first time. Although the routine makes use of simple, actually elementary sleights, it is a real baffler, and is calculated to puzzle the keenest observer, whether layman or magician.

To make this book complete I felt that I must have Frank's routine, but when I wrote him he replied that he couldn't do the trick justice without demonstrating it in person. He said he would be glad to teach it to me on our first meeting. Time went by, and to make a long story short I had to make a special trip into Flint, Michigan to get the full working details.

So, it is with great pleasure that I now present Frank Drobina's Coin Routine.

Effect

Five coins pass through the air from one hand to the other, invisibly. Time: Five to seven minutes.
