Miller, Charles Earle. Charlie Miller?s Cap and Pence Tricks. Two versions, including one with a leather cone and the other with a leather cap, for the classic Leipzig-inspired trick in which a stack of coins penetrates the hand of an audience volunteer. When the cone is lifted, a die or other small item has appeared on the back of the hand. The gimmicked stacks made of old English Pence and Japanese Yen, with matching loose coins.
