A '''Dragon Coin''' is a large [[coin]] that first appears in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. It has a picture of a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]'s head and torso imprinted on it. | A '''Dragon Coin''' is a large [[coin]] that first appears in ''[[Super Mario World]]''.

In ''Super Mario World'', at least five Dragon Coins appear in most [[level]]s, although places such as [[castle]]s, [[Ghost House]]s, and [[fortress]]es have no Dragon Coins. Collecting a Dragon Coins plays a unique sound effect, and it is also counted as one coin. The first four coins collected give 1,000, 2,000, 4,000, and 8,000 [[point]]s, respectively, and collecting all five in a level awards the player an [[extra life]]. [[Yoshi's Wings]] can be used to access certain auto-scrolling [[Coin Heaven]]s, where five Dragon Coins can be found. Six or more Dragon Coins may rarely appear in a level, with every Dragon Coin after the fifth also rewarding an extra life. In these levels, going through a [[Warp Pipe]] to a new area causes all remaining Dragon Coins to disappear if [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] has already collected at least five of them, making the remaining ones unobtainable. [[Chocolate Secret]] is unique for having only one Dragon Coin. | In ''Super Mario World'', at least five Dragon Coins appear in most [[level]]s, although places such as [[castle]]s, [[Ghost House]]s, and [[fortress]]es have no Dragon Coins.

In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, ''[[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2]]'', Dragon Coins have a slightly bigger role. They now appear in levels that did not originally have them, and the number of Dragon Coins acquired is recorded on a menu. If the player collects them all, a cutscene plays, showing all of the collected Dragon Coins falling from the sky and being stacked together; afterwards, a giant Dragon Coin appears, and [[Yoshi]] eats it and lays an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]], which hatches into a giant coin with [[Princess Peach]]'s face, resulting in all of the Dragon Coins in the game having Peach's face imprinted on them instead of Yoshi's. Chocolate Secret now has the standard set of five Dragon Coins. In the ''[[Nintendo Power Advance]]'' guide for ''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2'', the symbol for the Dragon Coins denoting where they are located in a level is drawn with a three-tined fork instead of Yoshi's or Peach's likeness.<ref>''Nintendo Power Advance'' v.4.

*''[[Yoshi's Safari]]'' | *Most of the games in the [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'' franchise]] such as ''[[Yoshi's Safari]]'', ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', and ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'' feature coins with a Yoshi's head on them rather than the normal coin design. The coins on the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' version of the course [[Yoshi's Island (race course)|Yoshi's Island]] also features this design, as the course is heavily inspired by ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''. The coins in ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'' feature a depiction of a [[Yoshi's Egg]] instead; however, the larger [[10-Coin|10 Coin]]s depict Yoshi's head, similar to Dragon Coins. | ||
