I'm learning this slieght and must say it looks good, but there is a problem with the coin making a sound as it is stolen away?

anyone else have this problem?

I know what you mean. Off the top of my head, the only two suggestions I might have are:

1) Using "soft" coins and/or covering with another noise (even a cough ).

2) Practice just slightly lowering the stealing hand to avoid (kind of a micro-drop) before pulling that hand away. Kind a pain to fiddle with, a bit knacky, but could be handy in the long run. I've managed to learn something similar when producing multiple coins from Downs' Palm.

Hope this helps. PM me if I'm not being clear enough (this was a bit abbreviated).

Because the steal is done a tenth of a second before the coins are transferred from one hand to the other, there really is no need to cover up the sound of the coins. The audience will allow for (and even expect) some noise from the coins.

You can drop the bottom coin onto the fingertips instead of scraping it off, but really the noise of the coins dropping into the hand as a closes is enough to explain any sound.

Click passes don't generally sound like what they imitate either.
