Magic coin tricks are a lot of fun, and fortunately they're not that hard to learn. Yes, it will take you some time to learn do perform them perfectly, but it's worth doing.

For our first magic coin trick, we'll require two coins. The best combination is a nickel and a penny.

You'll need a volunteer for this trick. Press a coin into the hand of someone in your audience. They need to hold the coin with their palm flat and facing upwards.

You'll announce to the audience that you will grab the coin faster than the volunteer can close their fist around the coin. You'll begin by holding your hand over your volunteer's hand, slightly separating your fingers.

You will then attempt to quickly pick up the coin with your thumb and first three fingers.

The participant will think that they can be quicker than you; they think this because they still feel a circular object in their hand, but it ends up being the other coin.

It's loads of fun to learn how to do magic coin tricks, but there are times when you may need someone's help to effectively pull one off. Ask a friend to assist you with a trick, and make sure they won't reveal to anyone else how the trick is done.

Here's what you do: Place a coin in your friend's hand and then place the other coin on your palm, just at the crease between your forefinger and thumb. You'll hold your hand so it looks as though you are about to grab the other's coin.

Just as you are about to snatch that coin away, tell your friend to slowly close their fingers since you're still learning how to do this trick. Then you'll pick up the coin and very quickly swap it with the other coin you've been holding, just in the same exact place.

Now tell your friend to close up their hand. As you keep practicing, you'll get better and faster at it. Your friend will then be able to close their hand as fast as they possibly can.

After you have the coin trick down, you can try it out in front of an audience. Do not close the trick by showing you have the coin that was originally in their hand. Let them open up their fist and see that they have a different coin than the one they started out with.

Magic coin tricks are great to perform with kids. This is one of those fun tricks to try out on an audience of children.
