A small plastic tub with a tight push-on lid is shown, opened, and a collection of coins tipped from inside. The performer puts his initials on a self-adhesive round sticker, attaches it to one of the coins, and then repeats the process for the other side of the coin with a sticker bearing a spectator's initials.
The rest of the coins are returned to the tub and the lid is pushed back on. Taking the marked coin into his hand the performer strikes it against the bottom of the container, immediately showing that both his hands are empty.
The tub is handed to a spectator who prises off the lid, and on tipping out the coins from within, discovers the marked coin is also inside there.
No gimmicks are required, this is a practical version of the classic coin into bottle which is suitable for table work.
