A well made paddle 8 inches long has four receptacles into which four canisters fit. Each canister has a different color lid and the lids have sponge attached which prevent a coin from making sound once placed within.

A spectator is asked for the loan of a quarter size coin and further asked to place the coin within one of the canisters and remember which color holds the coin. The coin placement is done without being seen by the mentalist and the spectator is asked to place the canisters upon the paddle which is used to prevent the mentalist from handling the canisters in any way.

The mentalist then takes the paddle with canisters and drops the canisters into a paper bag (not supplied) or the like and given to another spectator to hold. At the right time the mentalist states which canister holds the coin and the spectator holding the bag is asked to remove the canisters and check where it is found that the correct color canister has been named.

No instructions but the winning bidder will be given the secret to this clever effect. Condition very fine.
