The Mexican Centavo The perfect accessory for the Scotch and Soda Why you ask? I have two really good reasons. 1. How many times have you lost magic coins cmon you know youve done it 2. Using a second Centavo is the perfect way to make it seemingly appear (after vanishing it in the spectators hands), under a close up pad or coaster (or from a spectators ear). One of the greatest coin effects of all time.
