Does any body know a good technique for showing your hands empty, then reach into the air and pull out a coin(s).

A good technique would be Downs Palm. The first time i saw it was on an old Vernon tape. Bruce Cervon did Vernon's Coins and Silk. It was amazing. There is also a technique described on Garrett Thomas' "Any Questions?" video called the "Web Grip". Another similar production taught recently was the "Mutobe Palm". I dont know but i think this was on Palms of Steel Vol. 2.

I haven't received my "Palms of Steel II" yet. But I know Jeff McBride teaches the Downs Palm on Volume 1 of "World Class Manipulation." Back Palming will be the most helpful. Jeff McBride teaches it on his Volume 3. But the coins must be thin. Norm Neilsen will work well. Good luck.

I would have to go with Ben, just use a backclip.

In the Fists of Fury DVD, Curits Kam produces a coin out of thin air.
The backclip is good although not totally angle-proof. Aside from the downs palm, there's the old classic palm, thumb palm, old-style thumb palm (I found this in Fists of Fury), finger palm, edge grip (Dr. Rubinstein used it in his purse spellbound routine in his Knockout coin magic dvd & video), hand washing techniques, flying shuttle..... |

Kyle,
Routine construction is usually more effective that pure sleight of hand. In this case, you might want to see if the way you show your hands might allow you to secretly obtain the coin. Some take their cue from Downs, and get set up in the process of pushing up their sleeves. Downs himself took this to the next level by detaching the bottom of his sleeves so he would be bare armed from wrist almost to elbow. As a side note, you might like to know that this was considered risque back then and got a reaction from the ladies in the audience. Have you considered using a hoo coin and putting it somewhere at some time and retrieving it later when you need it?
...to all the coins I've dropped here
