Description & Effect
Unleash a Modern Classic in Close-Up Magic
Dive into "The Cord and the Coins" by master magician Pipo Villanueva, a brilliant evolution of Troy Houser’s "Charming Chinese Challenge," refined through Lance Pierce’s "Recharmed I’m Sure." Pipo’s unique take distills the routine to its most potent form, focusing solely on three stunning penetrations in the spirit of the timeless "Coins through the Silk." This isn't just another trick; it's a meticulously crafted, streamlined handling designed for the discerning professional. Ideal for real-world close-up and demanding table-hopping environments, this routine boasts virtually no angles, ensuring flawless performance every time, no matter where your audience is positioned.
The Astounding Effect: Coins Through Cord Like Butter
Imagine this: Three genuine Chinese coins, each with a distinctive central hole, are thoroughly examined by your audience. A simple red cord, equally available for inspection, is then threaded through the coins. With effortless grace, each coin visually penetrates the cord, passing through it as if it were made of butter. The final penetration is a show-stopping moment, meticulously engineered by Pipo to provide an incredibly strong conclusion. After all three coins have defied logic, they are released, leaving the cord completely intact and your audience utterly baffled. Every move and subtle nuance is explained with unparalleled clarity, featuring detailed front and back perspectives to simplify your understanding of the mechanics.

Original Specs
The Cord and the Coins is my take con Troy Houser’s modern classic “Charming Chinese Challenge”. It takes as the point of departure Lance Pierce’s beautiful take on this routine, “Recharmed I’m sure”. This minimalistic routine dispenses with all effects except the three penetrations, in the spirit of the all-time classic “Coins through the silk” and it was design with the idea of streamlining further the handling.
This a professional handling best suited for real close up and table-hoping performance with virtually not angles for that kind of environment.
One of the challenges while developing the routine was coming up with a last penetration strong enough to close the routine there. All the moves are explained with great detail from the front and the back to simplify the understanding of the mechanics involved.
EFFECT
Three Chinese coins (with a hole in the center) are examined by the audience and threaded on a red cord which also has been examined. One by one the coins penetrate the cord like it’s made of butter, at the end the coins are released, and the cord remains intact.
