 ====== Coin Under Bill Concealment ======
-The idea hiding a coin under one end of an open bill, then transferring it to the opposite end of the bill (and opposite hand) in the action of giving the bill a snap between the hands was described by Dino R. Mazza in "Dino's Silver Phantasy", //[[http://askalexander.org/display/3097/New+Phoenix/369|New Phoenix]]//, No. 388, March 1964, p. 379. Mazza died in February 21, 1964. This publication of the idea predates that in Andrus's //Five Dollar Trix// (1973).
+A coin hidden behind one end of a bill is transferred behind the other end in the action of bringing the hands together and then apart, snapping the bill taut between them. Clayton William Rosencrance published a procedure that appears to be this action in the March 1924 issue of //[[http://askalexander.org/display/38424/The+Sphinx/21|The Sphinx]]// ("Anywise Coin Vanish", Vol. 23 No. 1, p. 21). The move was later reinvented (see "Michell's Move" in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/13129/Phoenix+151+200/187|The Phoenix]]//, No. 196, Jan. 27, 1950, 782; and Dino R. Mazza's "Dino's Silver Phantasy" in //[[http://askalexander.org/display/3097/New+Phoenix/369|New Phoenix]]//, No. 388, March 1964, p. 379).
