"The Lost Coin" joke

My husband and I had just finished tucking our young ones into bed one evening when we heard sobbing coming from three-year-old Billy`s room. Rushing to his side, we found him crying hysterically. He had accidentally swallowed a penny and was sure he was going to die. No amount of talking could change his mind. Desperate to calm him, my husband palmed a penny that he happened to have in his pocket and pretended to pull it from Billy`s ear. Billy was delighted. In a flash, he snatched it from my husband`s hand, swallowed it and demanded cheerfully, "Do it again, dad!"
