Bigger and heavier coins may help beginners get better grip and control of the coin. Keep in mind that this trick will require lots of practice. It will take time to coordinate the movements of your fingers while controlling the movement of the coin. [3] X Research source
As you slide the coin up to your pointer finger, turn your hand over so your palm is facing down. [5] X Research source
Your hand should look like you are holding onto an invisible microphone.
As the coin is resting flat on your pointer finger, slightly raise your middle finger above your index finger. [9] X Research source Your raised middle finger will act as a barrier so the coin doesn’t fall off your fingers, but it will also be instrumental to flip the coin over to your next finger.

When you push up with your pointer finger, you push the coin up and away so it can flip onto your middle finger. When you bring down your middle finger, you provide a lower platform for the coin to easily flip onto. When the coin is resting on your middle finger phalanx, slightly raise your ring finger to get ready for the next flip. [12] X Research source
When the coin is resting on top of your ring finger phalanx, slightly raise your pinky finger. [14] X Research source
Instead of lifting your ring finger up high to flip the coin over, simply allow the coin to fall in the space between your two fingers. Pinch and hold the coin in the space between your two fingers. [16] X Research source
Keep a small, top portion of the coin still pinched between your fingers.
With enough practice, you will be able to balance the coin on the side your thumb and carry it back to your starting position, rather than sliding it across the underside of your fingers.
