Separating Discs ? ?Chinese? Coin Version. Holland: Eddy Taytelbaum, ca. 1965. Three white and three gold reverse-painted Chinese coins magically alternate colors when stacked together on a small pedestal. Together with two coins for Taytelbaum?s version of the Chinatown Coin trick (one solid red ?Chinese? coin, another gimmicked, its reverse matching the gold coins in the Separating Discs); a small box made by Taytelbaum, and a small magnetic head also made by Taytelbaum, which attaches to the top of the stack with magnets. Coin discs 1 3/8? diam. The only such set Taytelbaum manufactured. Fine. The coins in the stack are finely decorated using the reverse-painting method Taytelbaum became famous for, as are the matching coins in the Chinatown set manufactured to accompany them. The small head is identical to those issued with his Cyclotron trick, and the small box is reminiscent of the cases used to house his Tumbling Blocks.
