Matrix Opener by Alexander de Cova
A clever gimmick that allows one to secretly introduce four coins singly from a deck of cards.

Al Schneider's Matrix is a classic. It didn't take long for magicians to invent ways to produce the four coins from the deck. Notable contributions stem from Ray Mertz, Don England, Paul Harris, Nick Einhorn, Michael Broden and others.

With this humble contribution, Alexander de Cova joins the row and offers a version to produce the coins singly from the deck in the course of an Ace cutting routine.

Of course, there are many variations and handlings possible with this gimmick. Play around and find your own way to get the most out of this concept. The gimmick is not difficult to make, but it will take some time to put it together.
