If you search for "coin in nest of boxes" you should get plenty of hits, but I'm not sure if you'll find a modern version with matchboxes. Most versions I've seen use brass boxes (and a different method). There's also one with leather wallets.

I remember it was made of metal. I wonder if the trick could be done with a cardboard slide you could make yourself. I dunno. Probably not I suppose. I also seem to remember there was a tiny little cloth bag inside the last box where the coin would end up.
