I know a variant of this trick, that is slightly more complicated, but evades the problem of people seeing the paper glues to the cup as you place it over the coin. It can also be developed so that you can easily (and with NO sleight of hand) replace the cup with paper, for a cup without and the give this new cup to the audience to see - I might make an 'ible on that.

This is a cool little trick, well done. Just remember that the cup can't be examined after so have something amazing to move on to to take their attention forward!
