Hold end of spoon with hand containing the hidden coin.

Bring other hand with concealed coin over the spoon handle. Make sure that a little of the coin is visible. Your audience should think that the coin is the end of the spoon handle.

Twist this hand up slightly. Make sure that half the coin is visible.

Bend this hand up a little and it will look like the spoon is bending.

Continue to bend your hand back and forward remembering to watch your angles so that the real spoon handle is hidden from your audience's view.

Continue to bend this hand back and forward. Be careful of your angles and be careful that your audience cannot see the real spoon handle which should remain hidden from view.

Spoon can now be presnted for inspection by audience where it is seen to be in its original condition.

After a few bends back and forward. The spoon can be presented for inspection in its original condition. The coin in the other hand should be sneaked into your pocket.
