NARRATIVE
               Place a penny on top of the heavy paper ring which is placed over the mouth of the milk bottle. Hit the inside of the ring with the metal rod to drive it out from under the penny and the penny will fall into the milk bottle.

            If the ring is struck on its outer surface by the metal rod, it will deform to push the penny up and away, causing it to miss the bottle.
