The Sudbury Penny produced by the now defunct Sudbury Mint in Canada is a legendary magic prop. The original coins were made to be sold in novelty shops, but were outlawed by the U.S. Treasury and most of these wonderful coins were destroyed. Magicians, myself included, looked EVERYWHERE for Sudbury pennies. They looked Great. They felt Great. They were simply the best coin of its type ever produced.
About five years ago I was able to buy 100 original Sudbury pennies from a store in Canada that had gotten them in an estate sale. I could easily have gotten $50 each. I put them out at $35.00 each in my Shopper Newsletter and within 2 1/2 days every coin had been sold. I could have sold hundreds more if I could have gotten them.
Well, I took the plunge. Over a year ago I put into motion what needed to be done to have a copy of the Sudbury penny produced. It has taken a ton of time and ton of money, but I have them and they are ready for sale!!!
Note: This is a limited run and I honestly don't know if I will ever produce them again. These are BETTER than the Sudbury original. Why? Because they are even CLEANER than the original. Nothing on them about Sudbury, etc. They look, feel, smell, whatever....like the original.
I am very, very pleased to offer these to the magic community! Note: The photo on the site is the best we could do. I will be getting better done. The photo does not do anywhere near the justice that the coin deserves. These are 100% GUARANTEED to satisfy or return for a full refund!!! Thanks and enjoy,

Other products in the category Various Tricks and Supplies:
Chick Pan -- The Chick Pan is the small brother of the venerable Dove Pan and in some ways is even more versitile. The effect is simple and classic: You display a small metal bowl. (Note: If you like you can use some lighter fluid to make a bowl full of fire that is put out when the lid is put on.) You set the bowl down and then cover it with it's metal lid. Pulling the lid off again the bowl is seen to be full of whatever you wish to produce. It could be a live baby chicken, candy or in Dave Thorsen's great little routine ..... Peanuts!
MacDonald's Aces DVD -- From Brad Burt: This is a great DVD. A bargain really as it contains some of the best versions of one of the best tricks ever devised THE MacDonald ACES!

effects and routines. It's a fabulous compendium with many of the top
masters in the world of magic teaching their handlings and routines for
some of magic's classics. Linking rings, sponge balls, metal bending,
cups and balls, thumb tips, Zombie, color-changing knives, and many,
many more topics are all gathered in this one terrific DVD reference
set. Each volume covers a specific subject and features new, old, and
sometimes rare footage by some of the top video producers in magic. There
are many who would argue that the Ace assembly trick that has come to
be known as MacDonald's Aces is the strongest card trick you can do for
a layman. Though you may have a different opinion, you just may be
tempted to change your mind after witnessing the six world-class
performances on this volume. Leading off, Michael Ammar
presents an easy-to-master, yet extremely effective, version of
MacDonald's Aces while Johnny Thompson offers a take that intimately
involves the spectators. John Mendoza is next with the approach of a
classicist while Alexander deCova embellishes his interpretation with
an amazing – and amazingly simple – four Ace production. Rising card
star John Guastaferro offers up two versions. The first features
complete vanishes of the Aces rather than a transposition and also
supplies a strong presentational hook while the second is the perfect
solution . . .

Ultimate Three Card Monte - Skinner -- The following ad copy is from the supplier and frankly....it pretty much tells the story. Looking for a GREAT easy to do trick that 'does' take some practice...this is Top Notch! - Brad
Michael Skinner's vast working repertoire, larger
perhaps than any other magician in history, contained some of the most
difficult sleight-of-hand tricks imaginable. Yet, one of his pet
tricks, a feature of his close-up act at the Golden Nugget Casino in
Las Vegas where he performed for two decades, is this self-working
miracle—the Ultimate 3 Card Monte.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that it almost works
by itself, though. Michael Skinner fried audiences with this routine
and after he released the secret, the Ultimate 3 Card Monte found
itself into the working repertoires of professional close-up magicians
all over the world. And now—it can be yours!
Everything (except a bit of practice) is included
in the package —professionally illustrated instructions, original
patter, and the specially printed Bicycle-brand cards that make this
miracle possible.
The Ultimate 3 Card Monte—it’s the stuff of legends.
