A new take on Fechter’s Flying Eagles.

Double Cross Doubloons is my version of Fechter’s “Flying Eagles” routine, which is a tabled coin effect that has the advantage of not needing gaffed coins, gimmicks, or a soft surface like a close-up mat, nor are there any clothing requirements like sleeves, making it very practical for the restaurant worker or impromptu performer.

Double Cross Doubloons uses only six normal coins.

In this routine, each coin travels across via a different method, and ends in a flash crossing of all three coins, providing a climax that is missing from the original. The flash crossing combines two different methods, so the routine is difficult for spectators to unravel. Double Cross Doubloons also includes an original, engaging presentation for the trick.

I also teach and analyze the original Flying Eagles effect found in Bobo’s, Fechter’s version, as well as Daryl’s Cross of India, which is similar. Regardless of your skill level, you will learn a practical coins-across effect that you can and will perform.
