Where can I find a resource for Han Pin Chen (the sleight, not the person)? I've heard it used a few times and whilst I can guess how it's done I'd rather learn the ins and outs from a book.
 
I'm not sure if there is an official original source for it, but I'd rather call it a concept than a move, given the huge amount of variations of it. First two that come to mind are Eric Jones in Metal, and Sankey in anytime anywhere.

However my advice is if you know how it works, develop your own based on your needs for it, due to the variation possible with the concept you may never like the way you learn from anyone else.
 
Han Ping CHen can be found in Bobo's Modern Coin Magic as well, and likely in Slydini's work somewhere or the other with his coins through the table.

I think it's best to at least learn the move as taught before modifying it for one's self. May as well get it from the source, witht eh expertise behind it first, and then see what (if anything) you should change for yourself.
