4. THE OBLIQUE PALM

image

Show the coin held between the tips of the right thumb and forefinger near the edge with as much of the coin showing as possible, the other three fingers being closed on the palm. Bring the right hand over to the left hand, place the outer edge of the coin against the left palm, and begin to close the left fingers. At the moment that the coin is hidden by them, place the first joint of the right second finger in front of the coin and that of the third finger behind it (Fig. 10), grip the coin with them, bend the two fingers, and carry the coin to the oblique palm in the right hand (Fig. 11).

Immediately close the left fingers on the right thumb and forefinger and then slowly withdraw them. To all appearance the coin has been placed in the left hand. Raise the left hand diagonally to the left and turn slightly toward the left; point to the left hand with the right forefinger and make the usual movements to complete the vanish.
