"COIN GRAB" (#67)

"COIN GRAB" (#67)


Effect : The magician sticks the coin into the handkerchief, turns it over and then the coin disappears from inside the handkerchief.

Secret :You secretly wrap a rubber band around your fingers and thumb---you will need to experiment with this a bit to find the best way to for you !
Then you place the handkerchief in that hand. With your other hand place the coin into the handkerchief.
Then let the rubber band slide off of your fingers and onto the handkerchief, so it surrounds the coin and it is under the handkerchief. This will have the effect of almost making the coin disappear in itself, because the rubber band, if tight, will bring the cloth around the coin.
You then slide your hand up to the end of the handkerchief and shake it.
This makes it look like the coin has disappeared.
But it is really stuck in the handkerchief, held by the rubber band. You can trythis with several coins, or with other objects !!
