Very happy to have found your channel. And I am an old, decades long Magician. I think I can judge quality. You present magic and philosophical QUALITY!
@@RickHolcombe Your presentations are very high level. AMAZING! I bet you are a very popular Magician in live performances. I very much appreciate and enjoy your videos here. Bust out a couple tunes on that banjo I see in the background! I LOVE Bluegrass music!
I taught taekwondo for many years. I cant stress enough your point about taking breaks. Many athletes way overtrain, but it's a fact that you can't train subtle movements into your neurological system when you're tired. You'll get much better results through multiple short training sessions than one lengthy one.
Excellent advice. My kinda guy, stressing practice. Yeah, practicing w bigger coins is a secret weapon. Was awesome when you came in super close. I love coin purses
Nice! I'm actually working on spellbound stuff right now. I have watched a few other professional coin guys like Giacomo Bertini for spellbound moves. I'm excited to see what you have that I can add to my new routine that I'm trying to create. Glad you started this channel. 😁👍
Would love to hear the rest of what you have to say about carrying most of what you know in the little purse, and on pocket management in general with coins, gimmicks and sets. Thanks for the advice today, I’ll be using a camera more now.
Thanks for sharing your terrific videos with us, Rick. Both your magic and the advice you give are awesome. I hope you're planning on releasing some paid training or books in the near future. Hint, hint.
@@RickHolcombe Thank you. Actually, after posting my comment I did follow the link below the video and bought both of your available items. I've got something to work on with all this spare time. Would you allow me to make two suggestions for your consideration? On your site, when you offer an effect/training for sale, it would help if you included a video that demonstrates the effect(s). Also, perhaps you could give a rating for its level of difficulty: beginner, intermediate, advanced. It's just a thought, but I'm sure it would help some with their buying decision. I know I'm happy with my purchases!
Hi Rick, once again thanks for all these enthusiastic videos about coin magic. I just re-started with the workthrough of card college from Roberto Giobbi. But am not sure to be switching coins for cards in the future. Are you doing resp. have you been doing card magic also? I find that all or most of the greats masters have been specialized in this field of magic (Bertini, Roth, Ponta the Smith etc.). To become really good at it, the focus has to be there. I find there are many good lessons that can be applied to coin magic in general (head movement, crossing the gaze, etc.). Keep up the good work!
I think coin magic will help you with any other area of magic. You are forced to think about so much more, other than the sleights themselves. You are correct, it does involve the whole body and the eyes.
Hi Rick, just a small clarification. That black purse is NOT a Goshman purse. It is a Ton Onosaka purse. Goshman purse was the small clasp (lime the granny purse)
Hello Brother, I came up with a prototype of coins across where 3 coins travel from one hand to another... I didnt create it just put some sleights in and around in a new way... 😁😁😁
Regarding the coin pouch, the triangular one is the one I carry all the time, it is made by SANSMINDS (www.theonlinemagicstore.com/product/coin-pouch/ ) it is just 18 dollars and it has a small special feature. Highly recommended!
What is a source for half-dollar coins, replicas or similar sized alternatives? I find quarters too small and "silver" dollars too large for me. Actual half-dollar coins are hard to find.
You can ask any local bank. If they don't have them, they can order them for you. You can also check on Amazon or Vanishing Inc., but they charge way above face value. For real silver check coin shops, flea markets, eBay, and Amazon
I asked my bank and wae told they would see what they could do. I never heard back. I looked on Amazon, etc, and by the time you pay shipping they are $4-5 each.
Today I went to a local hardware store and looked through their assortment of metal flat washers. I found that what they call 1/2 inch, based on the opening in the center, has roughly the same outside diameter as a half-dollar. A 7/8 inch is just smaller than a Morgan dollar.
Dropping a note here. Just found you today and now I'm going through your library. Finding a lot of help for a beginner in your stuff. So, thanks.
Good to hear! That was my goal with the channel. Not a lot of good coin magic out there on TH-cam.

Bust out a couple tunes on that banjo I see in the background! I LOVE Bluegrass music!
Thanks for the great advice for coin practice and purses
My pleasure!
Mic stand why didn’t I ever think of that, Great idea!
Anyone else find these videos super relaxing?
Thanks! I can be kind of monotone, I know
Thanks for all!!
Great video! And I carry that EXACT Goshman Coin purse EVERY DAY, too! Bought mine in 1996!
Old school ROCKS!
And excellent advice on all this.
Thanks!

I just always called it a coin wallet but I use Jeff Copeland's Traveler. I love it. I use the gimmick all the time actually.
We all know what it really is! Haha!

You're welcome!

Great tip about using the rear camera instead of watching yourself perform via the selfie cam👍
I have the granny style purse 👛 lol. Great video as always and I can't wait for the next one. ✌️😎👍
I didn't mean to purse-shame you!
Excellent advices! I love all the practical tips.

That's on my list. Sort of an EDC for coins
Rick Holcombe | Coin Magic Wicked, I’ll look forward to it

This is one my favourites!!!
Awesome videos! What is your preferred product for dry hands as it relates to coin work?
I don't use any hand products, but I've heard people mention o'keefe's hand cream and Chamberlin's Golden Touch spray.
This is my favorite video.

Isn't the triangle wallet you discuss a Dean's Purse? Great videos taught by a great teacher
This is just a plain wallet that is triangular, no special features to it
love all of the purses .....oopppsss i mean small wallets ...good info
Great job as always!
Nice job an good info

Ah! You're right Shaun. Huge brain fart!
Very nice
Good content, as always;)

Hi Rick my hands are really dry and I’m finding it hard to grip my coins, any ideas please?
I don't really deal with this issue, but I've heard good things about O'keefe's hand cream from other people.
@@RickHolcombe Thanks for the reply I will give that a go 👍

Yeah, unfortunately it used to be a lot simpler

A 7/8 inch is just smaller than a Morgan dollar.
That works!

Haha! I couldn't have asked for a better person to be the one!
Nothing is more 'masculine' than the pink coin purse.
