Where the coin goes, nobody knows. Except you!

To complete this How-To you will need:

A coin
Dexterity

Step 1: Show the coin

Hold the coin between your thumb and fingers, palm up, the coin horizontal.

Step 2: Reach in

Reach in with the thumb and first finger of your other hand, as if to take the coin. Let the coin drop past the grabbing thumb and into the palm of the original hand.

Step 3: Palm the coin

Palm the coin in your dominant hand, between your thumb and first finger. Close your other hand and move it away as if it holds the coin.

Tip: Practice passing your hand in front and dropping and palming the coin to perfect the sleight-of-hand.

Step 4: Open for reveal

Open your second hand to reveal that the coin has magically vanished.

Step 5: Make it reappear

Make the coin reappear in your original hand by passing it from your palm to your fingers and opening your hand.
