Supplies You'll Need
Here are the basic supplies you'll need to perform this magic trick:
Clear Latex Rubber Balloon
Scissors
Rubber Band
Two Coins
Empty Jar or Drinking Glass
Playing Card
The Secret
Before the trick begins, one of the coins is secretly pushed firmly into the clear latex balloon.
The naked eye can't see the stretched transparent latex over the quarter, which appears to be resting on top.
Preparing The Trick
With a pair of scissors, cut off the end of the balloon and discard the trimmed piece.
Place the quarter tails side up in the centre of the balloon. Press the coin firmly into the latex until the rubber looks invisible and the tension holds the quarter in place.
Cover the jar's opening with the latex balloon and hold it in place with a rubber band.
Place a penny heads side up and slide a tiny part underneath the edge of the quarter. This will add to the deceptiveness.
Cover both with a playing card.
Performing the Trick Step-By-Step
Bring out the jar with both coins covered with a playing card. Tell your volunteer, "Under the playing cards are two coins."
Remove the playing card and ask your volunteer to "choose heads or tails." If they say heads, you say, "Great! We'll remove the penny." If they say, tails say, "Great! We'll use the quarter." This is a powerful mentalism secret called equivoque.
Now, all that's left is to push the quarter into the jar!
