Get a strong piece of clear adhesive tape, and simply tape the coin securely to your middle finger on your left or right hand, so it rests snugly against your palm. It's a good idea to practice in front of a mirror for a bit, so you can move your hand around freely without anybody seeing the coin.
When you want to make the coin appear, simply flip it up an over so it is hanging just over the outside of your palm, and you are holding in place with your thumb. When you make it vanish, flip it back and hide it securely in your palm. As it's important to keep the focus off your hand, you'll need to tell a compelling story, and use sweeping gestures with your other hand, and some animated facial expressions.
The longer story you can tell, the better. If you're not going to tell a story to go along with this trick, it's better to show it once in a while, completely unannounced, catching people off guard. Of course, if people know you are going to make a coin appear in your left hand, they'll be staring at your left hand. You can easily do this trick at a bar or party in the middle of a conversation. Just make the coin appear, and then act surprised, as if you don't know where it came from. Play it off, and return to the conversation. You can easily repeat this several times and nobody will be the wiser.
Like all other illusions, your greatest resource is to keep them guessing. Surprise is always a good thing, and it works well with this trick.
