Amazing Coin Vanish!
by Eddie Green
(Palm Coast, FL)
THE EFFECT: You display a coin to a spectator. You show both hands empty and roll up your sleeves (if you're wearing any). You place the coin on the back of your non-dominant hand showing it clearly to the audience. You pick it back up and hold it for a few seconds then you make it literally dematerialize!
THE SECRET: You need to wear jeans or shorts with pockets that are in front and are loose. When you place the coin on the back of your palm and pick it up again, you really slide it off into your pocket with your thumb.
This action should be covered by your hand. Practice this in front of a mirror and you'll have it down in no time! The rest of it is all in your presentation. No one suspects that it's in your pocket because they think you pick it back up and just make it vanish into thin air! Awesome effect!
