2011 Ellusionist ultimate signature coin into the balloon.

http://www.ellusionist.com/breach-signed-coin-in-balloon-by-jeremy-bennett.html

The first ever signed coin in balloon effect which does not require ruse, duplication or gimmickry.

Why put something through a balloon? By nature balloons are very fragile. The slightest puncture destroys them. So, when your spectators see a borrowed signed coin pass through the inflated wall of the balloon, well what do you think will happen?

The rules are simple:
1) Get a borrowed dime.
2) Get a spectators signature on it.
3) Pass it through the wall of an inflated balloon.
4) Hand it all out for inspection.
5) Amaze and enjoy.
