The Okito Coin Box has been a classic in the world of magic since its invention by Dutch magician Theodore Bamberg in 1911. The renowned coin magic master, David Roth, also dedicated a third of his book, Expert Coin Magic, to coin box magic. While there have been various versions of coin boxes, the three major types remain dominant: the Okito, Boston, and Slot boxes.

The Okito Box is a coin box with no gimmicks on the main body, named after its inventor. The Boston Box features a groove at the bottom where a coin can be placed, and the Slot Box has an internal groove that catches the coin when it is poured out. However, the different functions of these coin boxes can be confusing for magic enthusiasts new to coin boxes. This is where the M Box comes in.

The M Box = Okito + Boston, a fusion and re-creation of the classic.

Designed by veteran coin magician Jimmy Fan, the M Box combines the Okito and Boston boxes in a truly functional fusion, not just merely piecing the two together. Unlike other combined boxes, the M Box features a unique indented groove design that allows it to switch between an Okito Box and a Boston Box with ease during the performance. This means that the M Box functions as both an Okito and a Boston Box, and these two states can be switched even mid-performance and examined at any time.

If you purchase the “M Box Luxury Set,”, you’ll receive the M Box Luxury solid wood storage/display box made of pure walnut wood.
