Silver Odyssey III (with custom case) by Collectors’ Workshop
(c. 1994,2019)Collector’s Workshop was created by Rich Bloch and Nick Ruggiero in Middleburg, Virginia in 1972. They produced some of the most advanced and coolest magical effects that have been seen in the last forty years. Today the company is owned by the very capable George Robinson who continues their tradition of excellence and innovation.
Andy Martin –
In 1994, Rich Block and Nick Ruggiero released one of the most prized creations in the Collectors’ Workshop stable: Silver Odyssey II. It was a real beauty to behold. Now Twenty-Five years later George Robinson has created Silver Odyssey III and it looks and works perfectly.
Internally it does not look quite as stunning – gone are all the gleaming brass and copper components – but noone but the performer ever saw this anyway and it now it works perfectly and more reliably than ever before. Like the previous versions it does not come with any way to vanish the coins (?). My suggestions would be to use one of these devices:
If you have ever dreamed of performing this effect then I suggest you contact George – he has already sold out twice this year and I don’t know how many more runs he will be making. It is most certainly the perfect Coins To Glass effect.
Jon Wilson –
Let me start by saying a long time ago I realized that I am not a coin guy. Many years back I personally owned a Copentro effect that I thought was amazing. I still honestly do think that it is a great trick with coins.
Fast forward to 2024 and Silver Odyssey. After all of these years, I wanted to see George Robinson of Collectors Workshop make more of these that I could get my hands on one. My wishes came through with a previous owner and I can tell you that it is just beautiful and very fun to perform. The electronics (as many collectors, I don’t usually like electronics), but the electronics are very dependable, and I am very happy with Silver Odyssey I must say.
My only gripe or complaint that I had on mine was underneath the tray needed to be shined. With some help and advice from George I purchased a silver shining product that made the bottom look as good as the side and what you see displayed on Andy’s site. Just wonderful! A very highly recommended trick from George and Collectors Workshop!
