Silver expresque

Post by SimonC » Mon Oct 07, 2013 11:45 am

Has anyone ever seen this before? Ive had it for a while and it just occurred to me that it's a variation of silver express. This ones made in brass. Is the original silver express metal too?

I have one of these. It is the classic Coin Squeeze penetration trick. While there are some similarities in its workings, I would say Tenyo's Silver Express is more comparable to the classic Flying Coins trick.
Tenyo's Silver Express has two plastic caps that are not connected in any way. The coins travel from one cap to the other as they do in flying Coins.

Also in Silver Express the mechanics involved to keep one coin hidden is different and unique..........you don't need to shake the tubes to release it.

By the way I have the Coin Squeeze from the photos and I think that is one of the best versions......super poquet size and can be disassembled.

It is a lovely trick. It's nice to polish it every now and then too. So is silver express plastic? I'll have to try and find myself one if it works different :)

Yes it's plastic, it's because of the plastic it works ;)

You should get one Simon, it's a really nice trick!

Well, I have one ghost puzzle left if anyone has it... Or any other tenyo for that matter, either one good one in a box, two not in a box or a combination that works.
Looking at Roberto's video, am I right in thinking that the gold parts are metal and they keep the shape of the slightly 'softer' black parts? ;)
