Anyone can rip paper. Be better.
Pen through bill is one of magic's classics. But why? There's only one magical moment. The hole in the bill is repaired. Big whoop. At the end of the day you're just stabbing a dollar bill. Anyone with a pen can stab through paper.
Only a magician could put a pen through a solid coin.
That's where Puncture by Alex Linian comes in. This is a pen-thru-currency (a genre we just made up) routine with multiple magic moments that can be performed with a borrowed coin.
If you can toss a coin in the air, you can perform Puncture.
A coin goes up. Your pen goes through it. Audiences can see that the coin has been torn, as metal shears apart. Now, you dazzle them a second time as you pull the coin from the pen and magically heal it.
Pass out the pen for inspection and please return the coin if it's borrowed.
Puncture is available at any Murphy's Magic dealer, or you can check out with our featured dealer, Mad Hatter Magic!
