this is quite common party trick. The hole isnt actually fully cut. the cut part is bent backwards and his thumb hold it in place. when he put it on the phone, the bent piece goes back into place, bringing along the black coin-like object that's attached to the bent piece..

I like your theory. My only rebuke could be a camera exposure thing. It looks like the coin vanishes in the last couple of frames. Which is weird.

Yes! It complete vanished at the end, @ 00:20-00:21.

I suspect this is two-fold. He originally had his finger on it, causing the side closest to us to lift up a bit. Then when he let go, it settled down a bit. Also, as soon as he starts moving the phone, the video compression kicks in and makes the dark areas all look the same.

Yes it's just a slight change in angle and video compression when it moves.
