  2. Place the right index finger against the bottom of the two coins being held by the left thumb and index finger.
  3. Place the left thumb and against the top of the two coins being held by the right thumb and index finger.
  4. Roll one of the two coins out and up with the right index finger while the left thumb also rolls one of the two right side coins out and down.
Comments
Make sure when you finish Step 1 there is a more than normal amount of the coins extending on the back of the hand side. This will allow the coins to be rolled out further making a nicer result.

You can practice steps 2-4 with just 4 coins. It will be easier to become familiar with the moves that way.

For this trick larger thicker coins make it a lot easier and make the final result more effective. Poker chips are an ideal size for me.

Also when rolling the coin down with the thumb its easier if the two coin stack is positioned next to the knuckle of the thumb. If the coins are closer to the tip of the thumb then the coin will move over the nail when it is rolled out which makes it harder.
