Haruhito Hirata (fl. 1970s-1980s) is the inventor of a seminal coin-through-table move called the Hirata Master Move, introduced to American audiences in 1979 at the Magiconn Convention in Hartford, wherein a single coin held at the magician’s fingertips is brought down to the table's surface and disappears instantly, passing through to the other side.
Biography
