This video is a version of Tony Slydini's One Coin Routine. It is in his book, Slydini Encores, which is still available in ebook & paperback format. Tony had a unique flair, so I had to modify the handling to fit my performance style. I developed this version in the late sixties and have been performing this routine for fifty-plus years.

Wowser! I'm baffled, befuddled, and amazed. What a beautiful coin routine.
Glad you enjoyed it!👍
Although It’s rare now that I perform any magic, I still love seeing a beautiful effect like this. My late friend and mentor Bob Carver (Professor’s Nightmare) taught me some sleights and introduced me to J.B. Bobo’s book many years ago. Slydini was a master, and your performance here was a masterful one as well!
Thank you - I have been doing this routine since I was 21 - That's 54 years this routine has been in use and still one of my favorites😊😊
Great routine.
Thank you!!👍
That was amazing! Loved all the visual vanishes and productions.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing this with us. I like your unique story how you had to adapt it to your personality to perform the effect this is a great subtlety thanks for sharing👍👍👍
My pleasure!
Beautiful Al!!!😊❤️❤️❤️
Thank you kindly
Amazing
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the routine
What a pleasure to watch you work perfect timing and like everything you have ever touched "it becomes magic in your hands".
Thank you Robert
Very smoooooooth imp pass.
Great Allen
Thanks Allen, this routine has been in the repertoire for fifty years now.
Allen, it is so good to see you again brother. I still remember the mexican restaurant you took me to right when i moved to vegas at 19. Looking forward to more of your videos. You sir are a LEGEND in magic!
Hello Justin - good to hear from you. That great Mexican restaurant was called El Sombrero and unfortunately is no longer open.
What a nice routine at the best Slydini’s Style! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you!!
Great as always 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks 🔥
Good y. Sir, Please teach us one coin routine.I am excited to learn the move and secrets. God bless you.
I love coin magic and I should do more. I will get a few more videos on line👌
Great and excellent performance Mr Ackermann 👏
Thanks David; this routine has been in my repertoire now 50 years. It still plays as strong as it ever did. Tony Slydini really did give us a lot of great material to work with.
@@allanackerman4848 I agree with you Tony was a great and his material excellent and you bring to live again.as a matter of fact I admire you and your execution..I have all your books and Dvds and are a real gold mine ..magic greetings David La Marca

Very nice Allan, love the handling!
Many thanks
This was a vivid interpretation of rhythm and pace indeed , I really appreciate the classical details behind this routine.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was a nice change of pace Alan really appreciated the classic detail behind this one.
Glad you enjoyed it
Hi Al. Just watched your performance at the Magic Palace. Great card work as usual. I really like your invisible deck with a non-gimmicked deck. Nicely done.
Awesome! Thank you!👍 That show was a long time ago, but still do many of the routines.😊
Well, you're still going strong.
awesome!
Eamonn -- been doing this routine now for fifty plus years and it still works. Slydini's ideas are timeles.
@@allanackerman4848 watching this reminds me why I got into magic, thanks for putting these on Mr Ackerman. You're a legend.
Beautiful coin work Allan
Thank you kindly
Wow! That was great Allan! Your a great card man I’ve always admired, it was so great to see you do this coin routine for a change of pace. Slydini sure was a genius. I just saw your video today while going through CZcams. Love your channel! Thanks.
Eamonn - Glad you enjoyed it
This is a wonderful routine. There are quite a few surprises that just made me smile. At first, I thought you were using the idea of having an extra coin taped/glued to your clothing- very surprising! Your coin work is just as amazing as your card work. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Max - glad you liked the routine. There is an advantage to doing what you say -- you can do the routine walk around and I have played with it.
It’s a fantastic routine ! I must purchase his book !
Lot's of great material to be learned from Tony
The handlings are really nice Al!
Thank you Dustin.
Superb
Thanks 🤗
A master of misdirection
Glad you liked the performance.
Have you ever done Sly's "Helicopter card trick"?
Jeff, I did get to see slydini do the effect in a lecture in Chicago in the late sixties -- I gave it a try -- but it never did go into the repertoire.
I appreciate how you put the routine in an entertaining context vs being just a demo of coin sleights. I think all others I’ve seen perform it simply do a series of quick vanishes and productions from unlikely places such as the elbows and thin air. I don’t know if your finale is also Slydini’s but I like it much better as a finale than when the single coin simply makes a final appearance making the entire routine more of a segue than stand alone effect.
I got the idea from Roger Klause. He had a routine he called the slot machine. Made a coin disappear in his hand by pulling his thumb back and the coin vanished. He said the hand is like a slot machine. Then on the third coin instead of a vanish, he got a hand full of coins for a jackpot. I thought that would make the perfect ending to the routine I was doing. That was in 1970, when I was stationed at Sheppard Air Force Base. It was a great time for me as I got to meet Steve Freeman, Jerry Wynn, Roger Klause, & Chuck Smith.
@@allanackerman4848 thank you for the informative reply. I’ll try to find the Klause routine. Laypeople respond well to the multi-coin production..While bartending in the 82-94(-ish) I had great success with a roughly similar transformation ‘smashing’ or changing the customer’s (crumpled) paper money into coins from which I made their change. Most times I knew how much their change would be so I could smash/transform it into exact change. Since I was standing without jacket, I couldn’t hold to the same holdout as I would read as done by others but as you would imagine the method of was relatively the same. Speaking of Roger Klause, I got a lot of mileage from his (forgot the title) production of silver dimes from a rolled dollar bill. Again, thank you for another great video.
The thing about Tony was his unique gestures and inflections which fit him as an older Italian gentleman seamlessly.
But when you learn his routines you quickly discover that a lot of his gestures, mannerisms, vocal inflections feel strangely out of place on yourself.
So you are forced to adapt, or look and sound weird.
Robert, I have been doing this routine since my late teens; I saw Slydini do a lecture in Chicago when I was 19, and the one coin routine went into my repertoire. The coin production at the end was a suggestion by Roger Klause - he thought I needed a finish -- that would have been in 1970 or 1971; since then, the routine has not changed. I performed this piece for Tony Slydini, Mike Skinner, Looy Siminoff, and others at one of the Desert Magic Seminar after dinner sission one night. Tony got mad at me for changing his routine to fit my style. I felt terrible, but after the session, Mike Skinner came up to me and said -- Al, you did the right thing -- fit Tony's moves to fit your style.
@@allanackerman4848
Amen. You are flawless.
I remember the one who first turned me on to Slydini was Doug Henning, whom we all know also studied under him. So I purchased the two volume Ganson books and practiced myself to a point of being very good.
I learned so much about psychological misdirection, timing, etc. Things I applied to other routines through the years outside of Slydini.
Slydini was the undisputed master! Even when you KNOW how it’s done, having done the routines yourself, you are still taken in! Somehow, Slydini figured out exactly how our brains work, as far as how we perceive (and misperceive what our eyes see.) That’s why I so admire the purity of his work.
Timing is crucial. Juan Tamirez employs those principals in his “crossing the gaze” switch, which to me, is a thing of beauty!!
Sono un ragazzo italiano( come lo era Quintino Marcucci,vero nome di Tony Slydini ), ed è bellissimo vedere un grande mago rifare - rivisitare , una bellissima routine di Slydini il mondo dovrebbe stupirsi insieme e creare nuovi numeri di magia piuttosto che farsi ancora la guerra nel 2022 . Serve più magia e meno bombe
Thanks Henry -- agree
It would have been nice if the captions were not blocking the view
You can turn off captions by the three dots. Thanks for letting me know -- I just set the default to captions off.👍
Nicely done.
So cool that you got to see a lecture.
The body takes the hand where it needs to go;)
Does he mention to adapt the handling to your style in his book?
Not that I know of. But I remember that lecture like yesterday.
May not be the right place for a request but would love to see your no palm travelers routine 😃
Great suggestion! Will do that in a week or two.
Alan, nice to find you here as well. Maybe ask you did spent a long time with slydini back in the old days? Did you use to talk magic and old time performers?
Only had a few sessions with Tony Slydini over the years at various magic conventions. I did get to see Tony perform on stage and closeup quite a few times.
@@allanackerman4848 hi Allan, hope you are well. I do know tony met and knew a performer I am doing research for many years now Allan. I spoke to Richard turner recently and, as I suspected, daí vernon saw and knew his performer too. His name was jay Palmer and jay did the magic kettlenact with Doreen. Sadly, his things are no where to be found... I thought maybe tony May had mention jay Palmer to you at some moment
Wait? This isn’t the Alan Ackerman who was once a lawyer for Tony Spilotro is it?
No, not me -- just a card guy.
Hi, can you write the name of the book? Ps. Nicely done.
It is in Slydini Encores page 35 - it is available in a Kindle edition on Amazon.
So smooth!! I would love to learn from you. Hit me up
