Review of Coin Thru Nose by Tyler Sutter & The Magic Estate

Here’s a bit of true geek magic that will definitely shock the house.

As with classic Hindu needles, you’re going to have work at this one to make it happen, as well as deal with discomfort and mucus. It’s not for everybody and something that I’m not about to attempt, but Coin Thru Nose is just what the title states.

From the Nose
Here’s how the effect plays. You bring out a coin and mark it for identification, place it on your tongue and apparently swallow it. After some grunting and byplay, you bring out a hemostat, shove it up your nose and pull the marked coin out. 

This effect may be more accurately described as “coin from nose.” In fact, Tyler Sutter himself even refers to this effect by that name in the video.

Shockingly Simple?
The ads state that this is “simple and shocking to do.”

However, you will have to learn how to shove a coin up your nose and keep it there, as well as deal with one in your mouth. There’s definite danger. 

The other aspect is that you are dealing with your mouth and sinuses, as well as accompanying (real) mucus and other secretions. Discomfort is a given. Even after hundreds of performances, the process causes Sutter’s eyes to tear up. In addition to the coin, all you need to purchase is a hemostat that is readily available from a variety of strores.

Sutter performs this one on stage as well as in close-up. Handling looks straightforward. It’s all in working up your tolerance to the process. Master “Coin Thru Nose” and you’ll have a geeky masterpiece at your beck and call (and up your nose).
