Easy Magic Tricks: Vanishing a Coin With Rings
You can purchase the rings from any hardware store. I found these rings for a little more than a dollar apiece. If you like, you can perform this same trick using a clear drinking glass and cover the gimmicked glass with a napkin.

Once you have your prepared ring, you’re ready to perform the trick. Set-up the rings and card as in the first figure. If you like you can borrow a coin. Notice that the playing card is inserted underneath the ungimmicked ring to subtly imply that both rings are alright and not altered. Simply follow the steps outlined earlier in the presentation of the effect.
