Malini Subtlety
From Magicpedia, the free online encyclopedia for magicians by magicians.
Malini Subtlety or Kaps Subtlety, is a coin concealment used with the Classic Palm which shows one coin being held within an apparently otherwise empty hand.
It was first coined the "Kaps Subtlety" by David Roth and Richard Kaufman in "Expert Coin Magic" because it was taught to Roth by Kaps who popularized the move.
Jamy Ian Swiss later located an identical item in Malini and His Magic, although the Kaps version may display a bit more of the palm.
