Materials:

1 coin (at least the size of a quarter, but preferably a half dollar)

Procedure:

1.) First, hold the coin so that your entire audience may see it.

2.) Then take your other hand and grab at the coin. However, before you actually take the coin, drop the coin into your lower part of your hand. You MUST practice this part for perfection!

3.) When you have the 2nd step down, show your empty hand with a flourish. Then pretend to grab it out of someone's ear.
