How would an illusionist read the serial number of a dollar note that he never saw, if he held my closed fist and put it in my pocket?
I am not able to give you the method he used.
I haven’t watched the performance yet.
I wouldn’t give another magician’s secret away if I saw the performance.
One of the worst sins a magician can commit is that.
Magicians and Mentalists are talking about their secrets in private.
Students are given the chance to learn these secrets.
The students are supposed to demonstrate their interest in furthering the art by performing themselves, creating new effects, or any of the other ways of contributing.
It doesn’t qualify as instructing a serious student if you just put the secret out on a public forum.
To answer those who might be thinking, “If you don’t share secrets, how can there be any new magicians?”, I don’t say that to offend you.
We can use logic and not use any specific magical secrets to explain a few things out of your description.
It is not possible to read the serial number of a bill that you have never seen before.
What can we say from this?
The illusionist must have been aware of what was happening.
That can take a number of different forms.
The illusionist could be working with a confederate or stooge.
The illusionist could have switched the bill with one he already knows.
Since Mentalists and magicians don’t use stooges, that’s the more likely explanation.
Magicians and mentalists have very clever ways of changing bills.
The switch may have taken place before the show started.
It is possible that someone assisted in the switch without realizing they were helping the magician.
One of the basic texts on Mentalism might be of interest to you if you are interested in techniques that might have been used to carry off this effect.
I always recommend Practical Mental Effects by Theodore Annemann or 13 Steps to Mentalism by Tony Corinda.
The Artful Mentalism of Bob Cassidy is a great work.
The actual method used in the performance you saw may not be revealed by these.
Techniques that could be altered to achieve that effect could be given to you by them.
You will gain a great deal of appreciation for the techniques that Mentalists can use to appear to read minds, predict the future, see things that they cannot possibly have seen, etc., if they do.
David Blaine did this trick very well.
The magician rolls a thread into a ball.
He appears to swallow the thread that is placed in his mouth.
The magician is in pain when he bares his stomach and pulls the thread out.
There are variations on the coin in orange and something in fruit.
The coin in orange is one of the variations that includes something in fruit.

There are many magic routines.
There are many magic routines.
Magicians use a variety of mechanical devices to perform acts that seem to be physically impossible in mechanical magic.
As a form of entertainment, magic moved theatrical venues to television specials, which opened up new opportunities for deceptions, and brought stage magic to huge audiences.
Bizarre magic uses narrative and imagery to create eerie effects.
Classical Magic is a style of magic that is similar to magicians of the past.
Eating razor blades, needle-through-arm, string through the neck and pen-through- tongue are some of the common shock magic effects.
Penn & Teller are an example of comedy magic and stand-up comedy.
Television magic specials easily moved theatrical venues to them as a form of entertainment.
The Magic Circle was formed in London in 1905.
In addition to the standard commercial magic approaches of comedy and wonder, bizarre magic often uses horror, supernatural, and science fiction imagery.

When the audience member selects two clubs, their original card is destroyed, and the lemon is cut open, another two clubs are revealed.
The marks on the audience member’s object may be compared with the marks on the object inside the lemon by the magician.
The audience member’s actual object at the end of the trick is what some versions don’t rely on.
The magician prepares the lemon by cutting a long slot into it and then forcing a knife or pencil into it.
As many as three different bills would be given to the audience by Jarrow, and they would reappear inside the lemon.
The original bill is found inside the two halves of the lemon that have been pulled apart.
The audience member can be forced to choose a piece by palming the corner that was torn from the prepared card.
During the act, the lemon may be prepared secretly.
“signed bill in lemon” is a variation of this.
The lemon version of the bill is credited.
One hand over the other.
One hand over the other.
Don’t let the audience know that you removed the deck from the package, just keep one card at the back.
A deck of cards and a card box are all you need to perform one of the most famous card tricks of all time.
You might be doing a disappearing trick if you reveal the empty hand and then the other hand, which contains both objects.
If you return your hand behind your back, you will be able to reveal your powers.
When the cards are dealt out, shuffle those same-colored piles together and flip one upside-down to mix face-up and face-down cards.
Attach a quarter between your thumb and forefinger to keep the audience from seeing the dollar bill.
When you pick up one of the objects, pretend to put it in the other hand and secretly place it in your palm.
If you stand on one side of the room, you should be able to see the audience.
If you want to cut the cards again, put these back on top.

The computer spits out the winning numbers.
The winning numbers on the $16.5 million Iowa ticket were selected three years later on the same day that the drawing took place.
The lottery reminded the public after the winning ticket was announced.
He told her that because of his job, he couldn’t claim a winning lottery ticket.
The man who claimed the $568,990 Colorado lottery prize was dead.
This one was full of dead ends because it had to do with a suspicious lottery ticket.
She had dealt with around 200 people who had won more than $1 million, but had never seen a winning ticket go unclaimed.
In the first lottery he rigged, he wrote down the winning numbers on a yellow legal pad.
He said he gave tickets to friends or family.
He wrote the code that could have been used to fix the lottery, Sand told the jury.
