You have obviously seen them do this on TV yes? Think about it for awhile.

It's a fair question but if you need to ask it you really haven't got in to the basics of magic. Things like this come from learning the basics. I am pretty sure that you could find the technique in Royal Road to Card Magic ( just checked you can find it there) but you would need to understand the basics of card magic to even know what you were looking at. Magic is something that needs to be learned from the bottom up I am afraid. Most of us when we started out thought there must be some easy answers and most of us bought some crazy things from the Internet because they looked like magic miracles. The speed at which you can learn how to do things in magic is exactly proportional to the time you are prepared to put in to learning and practising. If somebody told you here and now how to load a card to somewhere you would not be able to do it. It is a bit like saying "what is the best place to learn how to do a Triple Salchow" when you haven't learned to ice skate yet. Sorry if this sounds off putting or pompous but the question is impossible to answer proprly until you understand more of the basics.

PM me with what you have in mind, I will tell you if you are on the right track or not but if you are not it will be back to you to go back to basics. Nothing in terms of how things are done gets disclosed on this site

Gary Jones has a routine where a coin is loaded into a spectator's pocket, it's on his lecture dvd which I think is called Gary Jones Live Vol 1.

For other ideas look into card/coin under watch routines, check out some of the James Brown dvds.

If you think about it it is obvious what needs to me done but it's all down to misdirectuon and performance.

Good luck.
