SOS Coin Trick Tutorial

Even if you don't know much about magic tricks, you've probably seen a trick that is known as the SOS coin production. This trick involves producing a coin in your hand seemingly out of mid-air. Of course, this is actually a sleight-of-hand trick that can be learned fairly quickly.

Instructions

    • 1

      Take a coin in one hand between your thumb, index and second fingers. Hold your other hand out with the palm exposed.

    • 2

      Make like you are going to place the coin into the palm of your hand. Move the coin to the palm of your hand.

    • 3

      Close the palm of your hand while simultaneously snapping your second finger in the coin hand down, which will position the coin parallel behind your index finger, hiding it.

    • 4

      Keep your hand closed and pull the other hand away. An audience will think that the coin is in the closed hand.

    • 5

      Open the closed hand to expose nothing in the palm. This is a hallmark SOS coin trick that even the most novice or aspiring magicians can perfect in a relatively short amount of time.
