Perform a magic trick and enchant your family and friends. The pins pierce the coin and yet it comes back out of the container undamaged!
Here's how it works:
- Let your audience examine the coin and the pins first and show them that you have nothing else.
- Place the coin in the lower part of the container.
- Now put the top lid on the bottom lid and close the box with a quarter turn to the right.
- Start by "poking" the coin through one of the four outer holes with a needle. This will tilt the coin inside upwards and out of the way of the pins.
- Now push the remaining pins through the holes.
- Show your audience that the pins can be moved.
- Now you can remove the pins again. Start again with the outer pins, so that the coin inside doesn't jingle so loudly.
- Shake the box back and forth and say your magic words to reassemble the coin.
- Open the box again and show your audience that the coin is still there and has no holes.
