Disappearing Coin Trick

For this next trick all you need as a coin (I personally use a quarter), a watch, and a small audience (1-2 people). Now, I know this might be hard for some people to do, but this trick requires being kind. You want to have a friendly conversation with your audience as you perform this trick. To start the trick all you want to do is ask your audience which hand the coin is in; it's as simple as that. However you want to switch up which hand the coin is in from time to time, and I suggest adding so fake grabs of the coin (Ex: have the coin on your right hand and just do the motion of picking up the coin with the left hand without actually grabbing the coin).
Now, once you have asked them which hand the coin is in after a couple of time, you want to make the coin finally disappear. To do this, you want to tell the audience a compliment like, "Good job," or, "Very good," after they find the correct hand in which the coin is in. When your audience looks up to meet your eyes as you say your compliment, slip the coin in-between your watch and wrist very quickly, but discretely. Once you have hidden the coin, pinch all of your fingers together and display it briefly as you say, "Ok, one last time," to make your audience belive that you still have the coin. Ask them which hand it is in, and once showing that there is nothing in both hands, just walk away with out telling them where the coin went.
