  <body>_*These new expanded shells are killer.*_

Not only are they the right price....but they work like a charm.  

*Here is why they are so cool.  *The shell was made in such a way that the inside of the shell displays the tail.  You can actually flash the inside of the shell and not worry!  How cool is that???!!!

_*As you can see in the photos above even from a few inches away its nearly impossible to tell the inside from the top.*_

The original idea was published by *Tom Gagnon* in his book _Sleightly Original_.  Years later a high priced version hit the market called _The MINT_.  It never really took off because of the price and most magicians couldn't justify spending the extra cash just for a few extra display moves.  

One of my pet effects has always been &lt;strong&gt;Tom Gagnon's&lt;/strong&gt; coin to eye effect from that same book.  Look it up and you'll have a coin effect you can carry in your pocket that will slay laymen AND magicians.

Even if you don't perform Tom's effect this is a shell that is VERY low priced and can be used for any expanded shell effect in the literature.  And there are hundreds.......

*Fitting Tip*

These shells are expanded BUT they are met to fit the coin snug unlike most UNIVERSAL shells that fit loose.  This is a good thing.  So....you may encounter a half dollar that fits too tight.  I recommend going to the local bank and picking up a few &quot;well warn&quot; halves.  Thats what I did and they all fit perfect.  If you find your shell fits too snug and you don't have any other coins....two minutes with a nail file around the edge of the coin will solve your problem!
