Whether adding to a magic show, impressing guests at a dinner party, or just showing off, this trick is is guaranteed to put you in the spotlight as you "magically" make a coin disappear, then draw it from someone's ear!

Steps

  1. Hold the coin in your right hand and have someone sign it.
  2. Have it on your palm. You will now learn something in the field of simple sleight of hand called the palm move.
  3. With the coin in your palm, relax your hands so that it curls as if you were holding an orange.
  4. Now curl slightly further.
  5. Turn your hand over, pretending to toss it into your left hand, while actually retaining it in your right.
  6. Your right hand should now look relaxed and natural. Slightly thrust your left hand forward while closing it and simultaneously drop your right hand with the coin down near your right leg.
  7. Up to now it should look simply as if the signed coin was put into your left hand.
  8. Really, known only to you, the coin is in your seemingly empty, natural and relax-looking right hand.
  9. Blow on your left and slowly open it to show that it has "disappeared"!
  10. Make a short speech about how "logically the only place the coin could be, based on past history," is in your volunteer's ear. Reach up with your right hand to their right ear.
  11. Now, in one smooth motion draw your hand away, slightly brushing their ear, meanwhile pushing the coin up to your finger-tips, out of your palm, with your thumb. It look as if you are pulling the vanished coin from your volunteer's ear!
  12. Show that it is the same coin that your volunteer signed.
  13. Give them the coin as a souvenir.
