One of the strongest effects in magic: a borrowed coin vanishes only to reappear inside a series of nested containers. Each container is opened one by one, building suspense, until the spectator’s coin is found in the final box.
Also known as the Spellbinding Boxes, Nest of Boxes, Nesting Boxes, or The Revenge of Doctor Matryoshka, this effect is a classic for good reason—it’s simple, direct, and completely baffling. Perfect for close-up or parlor performances, it never fails to leave audiences amazed.
