Early on I learned that, "The easiest coin to vanish is the one that never was."

Why focus on "best method" for causing a coin to vanish at the moment of apparent magic (Synchronous) when an Asynchronous approach of pre-ditching can support many "moments of magic with clean hands.

A combination of Pattern of Performance, Directed Focus, Inattention of Vision and Acting can surpass any gimmick out there. These you may use for the Ditch, but not ideal for the "moment."

you might check out the Pumpkin Seed Vanish and "Krotch" though -- or a good ROV combined with Preemptive Doubt.

The key to any "best vanish" is closing all doors prior to the apparent execution.


Is there any chance you have a book or DVD out ? Your insight into which magical 'parameters' to work with, when and how, is second to none! (with my utmost respect to the other professionals here!)

In Axel Hecklau's torn and restored newspaper dvd it is a complete coin vanish as bonus.

Since you specified the following requirements:

Borrowed coin
No sleights
Assumption that you want to reproduce said coin...

My suggestions would be:

Mark Stone's Coin Ditcher (pocket retrieval option)
Sleeving (although this is technically a sleight)
Topit w/ pocket retrieval
Devil's Hank
TT (depending upon coin size, TT size, ect)
Sanada gimmick

Without knowing more about your performance setting, surroundings, style and effect... that's my 2c.
