AroundSquare Deadeye Titanium Contact Coin

Deadeyes are Aroundsquare’s first entry into the world of currency
manipulation, and they’ve put a lot of time and effort into the
refinement of this design, and the development of possibilities
surrounding it. They’ve started calling these “contact coins” because
they lend themselves to a style of manipulation that resembles contact
juggling. On the surface, the Deadeyes look like just a refined worry
stone made from metal, and they certainly serve well for that. They are
precisely crafted and beautifully finished, with an ergonomic indent on
either side that is perfect for thumbs of any size. 

But as
you’d expect from AO2, there’s more to it than that. The concave shape
and resulting ridge around the perimeter make the Deadeyes perfect for
contact-style manipulation. With practice, the coins can be made to roll
fluidly between the fingers, or back and forth over the thumbs, and
isolations can be performed where the coins appear to be floating around
the fingertips.

The Deadeyes are available in two sizes, and
assorted metals. The large size is 37mm in diameters/ 24g, and the small one
is 30mm in diameter/ 13g. They both play well and feel great in the hand, but
the large feels much more substantial and is more stable when
performing contact-style manipulation, while the small is much closer to
the half-dollar size preferred by many magicians.
