user: First, you will need a coin in your right hand and show it to the spectator cleanly and clearly. You then move your right hand toward your left hand and slightly twist the right hand as you place your thumb on top of the coin. Now fully turn the right hand above your left hand, and close the left hand as if the coin has now fallen into it. Once this has happened, move the right hand, with the coin still in it, away to the side. Where will the spectator look for the coin?

assistant: The spectator will look for the coin in the left hand, but it will be empty. The spectator will be surprised and confused, wondering where the coin has disappeared to. You then bring your right hand back into view, opening it to reveal the coin still resting there. The spectator will be amazed at your sleight of hand, believing that you have performed a magic trick.
