Teleportation tricks and their secrets revealed: A roundup of magic with coins, cards, and more (21–30)
Teleportation of a coin using the Han Ping Chien move
Do you know the Han Ping Chien move? It’s a technique that makes it look like you’re placing multiple coins down when in fact you’re not.
The first thing you need is the thumb palm.
The thumb palm is a technique for concealing a coin with your thumb.
First, grab two coins and thumb palm them as is.
Then you pretend to pass them to the other hand, but you don’t actually transfer them.
At that moment, producing the sound of coins clinking is the key to the Han Ping Chien move.
Teleportation using a fingertip pass move
Would you like to try a teleportation magic trick using the fingertip pass move? The fingertip pass is a technique for flicking a coin—similar to the muscle pass.
First, make a loose fist and pinch the coin between your thumb and middle finger.
Then apply pressure and push up with your index finger, and the coin will shoot upward with force.
Compared to the muscle pass, it may be relatively easy to master.
Keep practicing until you’ve got it down.

Teleportation Magic with 6 Coins
Let’s try a simple teleportation magic trick with six coins called the “Chinese Classic”! Place six coins on the table, then pick up three in each hand and cast a magic spell.
Then, all the coins will appear from just one hand! In this trick, it looks like you’re putting them into your left hand, but in reality, you’re secretly moving more and more coins into your right hand.
Making clear sounds and using big, deliberate motions are the keys to success! The video explains it in an easy-to-understand way, so watch it carefully and give it some practice.
The coin teleports into the cup.
How about a penetration magic trick using nothing but a clear glass cup and a coin? As the name suggests, this trick makes it look like a single 100-yen coin passes right through a glass cup.
The secret is very simple: in addition to the coin that appears to be used, you secretly palm another 100-yen coin.
By tilting the cup and sandwiching it between the two coins, it looks as if there’s only one coin.
The key is to keep your hand movements natural so the hidden coin isn’t detected.
Take a look at the video and give it a try!
Muscle pass
How about a magic trick where a coin teleports from your right hand to your left? It’s a really baffling trick, so it’s sure to amaze your audience! In this trick, the coin that was in the right palm appears in the left palm in the very next moment.
The secret is that you cleverly flick the coin from one palm to the other using your hands.
At first glance it seems mysterious, but once you see how it’s done, it makes perfect sense! Once you get the hang of flicking the coin with one hand, it should be easy.
Be sure to use the video as a reference and give it some practice.
A coin instantly teleports from the performer’s hand to the back of the spectator’s hand.
This magic trick makes a coin that should have been held in the performer’s hand vanish and, before anyone realizes it, appear in the spectator’s hand.
The key elements are how you hold the coin and how you direct the audience’s gaze; getting them to discover the coin in an unexpected place leads to big reactions.
Use the performer’s eye line and movements to draw strong attention to the hand that isn’t holding the coin and divert awareness away from the hand that is.
It’s also crucial to guide the spectator on how to move their hand so they won’t notice the coin being placed on the back of it.
A coin instantly teleports into the glass
A big hit with just a single 500-yen coin! Here’s a teleportation magic trick.
In this trick, a 500-yen coin that was supposedly held in the left hand instantly teleports into a glass sitting under the right hand.
The secret is simple.
In the initial motion where you appear to transfer the coin from the right hand to the left, you’re only pretending—you’re actually still holding it in the right hand! Then you drop it into the glass.
Start by practicing a technique called the classic palm, which hides the coin in the palm of your hand.
