Variant of P Switch

A gold P Switch[1] is a rare type of P Switch introduced in Super Mario 3D World. When one is pressed, it makes a large quantity of coins appear. Only two gold P Switches are used in the game; they can be found in Conkdor Canyon and on the Coin Express. In Conkdor Canyon, the gold P Switch can be found inside a secret room accessed via a golden Pipe hidden on the roof of one of the structures, which can be reached with a Super Bell. When the switch is pressed here, it makes lots of coins shower into a nearby bottomless pit. On the Coin Express, a gold P Switch can be found inside one of the train cars alongside Captain Toad. Upon being pressed, it makes 50 coins shoot out of a nearby golden Pipe.

A gold P Switch appears in the Bowser's Fury campaign of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. It is located in a bonus room inside a secret golden Pipe found on the peak of Mount Magmeow, accessible with graffiti that Bowser Jr. can create there. When the switch is pressed here, 80 coins appear and fall from the top of the room.
