Adam Teese, 26, of Stockport, pleaded not guilty to 'throwing a missile' on to the pitch during last month’s Carling Cup semi-final.
Manchester City player Bellamy fell to the ground at Old Trafford after he was struck by a coin in the 50th minute as he went to take a corner.
Teese, who has held a season ticket at the club for eight years, spoke only to enter his plea and confirm his name and address during the hearing at Trafford Magistrates’ Court.
There was a massive police presence at the game on January 27, after trouble flared during the first leg.
A plastic bottle also thrown from the crowd narrowly missed Welsh forward Bellamy.
United won the match 3-1, giving them a 4-3 aggregate victory.
Teese will next appear at the court for a trial on May 13, which is expected to last two days.
