| | '''Ace Coins''' are special [[coin]]s that appear exclusively in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]''. Ace Coins are large, red, and sport an "A," and are named "Ace Coins" because a player needs to collect all five of these coins in order to completely beat, or "ace," the level. If a [[player]] finds all five Ace Coins in this level, the player will obtain a [[1-Up]]. However, Ace Coins are somewhat difficult to obtain, even risking the characters' lives for them. If the player plays through the level again, all collected Ace Coins will be transparent. Collecting them again still awards points, but they are not added to the running total. These coins are very similar to the [[Dragon Coin]]s, and similar coins known as [[Advance Coin]]s appear in [[World-e]] of ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. |

| '''Ace Coins'''<ref>''Super Mario Advance'' American instruction booklet, page 27.</ref> are large red [[coin]]s with an ''A'' engraved on them. They appear only in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'', as the successor to the [[Red Coin]]s from the Challenge mode of ''[[Super Mario Bros. Deluxe]]''.

|
| Five Ace Coins appear in every [[level]], and the player is required to obtain them to fully complete, or "ace," the level. There are 100 Ace Coins in total throughout the game. When the player collects all five Ace Coins in a level, they get an [[extra life]]. Ace Coins are often near where the player is likely to get injured or lose a life. Whenever a player replays a level, every collected Ace Coin becomes transparent and rewards only [[point]]s when collected. If the player gets a [[Game Over]] or chooses "Try Again" on the pause menu in a level that they have not completed, they lose every collected Ace Coin from that level.

| Ace Coins are very similar to the [[Dragon Coin]]s from ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Similar but different-colored coins known as [[Advance Coin]]s appear in [[World-e]] in ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.
