Coin

Place 7 coins near the paper puzzle.  (PDF is here)
Place a coin on any one of the 8 circles.
Slide that coin to an open circle directly across from that circle along one of the straight lines that connect the circles.
For example if a coin is placed on circle 3 it can slide to circle 6 or 8.
If a coin is placed on circle 4 it can slide to circle 1 or 7.
Leave the coin on the circle it was moved to.
Continue placing a coin on any remaining open circle and sliding it to an open circle.
Stop when you cannot find an open circle to slide your coin onto.
Challenge:
Get all seven coins placed and moved?
NB: There are many solutions to this puzzle.
