Coin to Wallet by Harry Phillips

Effect

The Coin to Wallet trick is a classic magic effect where a coin vanishes from the magician's hands and instantly appears inside a wallet. The wallet is often shown to be completely ordinary, making the sudden appearance of the coin even more surprising. The effect is clean, direct, and leaves the audience wondering how the coin could have traveled into a sealed or seemingly inaccessible place.
