Talk:Coin magic

Some suggestions for improving this page:

We need a better history of how the subject evolved. Some of the history given in Bobo, e.g. Scott's discovery of witchcraft etc., is good here.
Key figures in coin magic history: classic figures like T. Nelson Downs, to modern day figures like Roth, Dingle, Latta, etc.
Explanations of the evolution of techniques and tools: classical palmings vs. modern ones (rest palm, edge palm, etc.), more generally a contrast between the older and the modern more dynamic 'natural' techniques, gaffed coins and devices like coin boxes, Topit, sleeving/cuffing/lapping technique,
An explanation of the changes in the performance environment would be nice too
Classic coin effects and variations, e.g. Miser's Dream, Coins through the Table, Coins Across, Yank Hoe's sympathetic coins to the Marlo Matrix and Roth coin assembly type effects.
