Red coins are first seen in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. They are disguised as regular [[coin]]s, but have a slightly red tint, making them slightly easier to spot among most regular coins, although some regular coins are also tinted red (especially those collected from defeating certain enemies). Though visually the same size as regular coins, red coins have a slightly larger hitbox.{{ref needed}} The [[Magnifying Glass (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|Magnifying Glass]] can be used to display which coins are red coins. Twenty red coins appear in each level, and grabbing them adds one point for each coin to [[Yoshi]]'s score tally at the end of the level. In addition, a pink variant of [[Bandit]] called the Coin Bandit appears occasionally and holds a red coin; they tend to run away from Yoshi, but if Yoshi grabs the red coin without touching the Coin Bandit, they instead act the same as a normal Bandit. In [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|the remake]], red coins lose their red tint.
''[[Super Mario World]]'' was originally going to have flying Red Coins that are worth five regular coins if collected, but they were unused [[List of Super Mario World pre-release and unused content|during the game's development]]. They can be only accessed by hacking the game.


Red coins have the same role in both ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', though the Magnifying Glass does not return in either game.

Red Coins appear in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its remake]]. Each of them are worth two [[Coin|Yellow Coin]]s. When eight Red Coins are collected in an area, a [[Power Star]] spawns above the nearby [[Star Marker]]. The following courses have the following Red Coin missions:

Red Coins appeared in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', and returned in [[Super Mario 64 DS|its remake]]. Each Red Coin is worth two [[Coin|Yellow Coin]]s.

In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', some [[Bob-omb Buddy|Bob-omb Buddies]] have the ability to detect red coins when the player talks to them.

Additionally, all three [[Cap Switch]] courses have eight Red Coins to obtain: [[Tower of the Wing Cap]], [[Behind the Waterfall|Cavern of the Metal Cap]], and [[The Secret Under the Moat|Vanish Cap Under the Moat]]. This also goes for the [[Bowser]] courses: [[Bowser in the Dark World]], [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]], and [[Bowser in the Sky]].

Red coins, like [[Blue Coin|blue coins]], do not affect the [[coin]] total, unlike before, though both restore two health points of [[Mario]]'s [[Health Meter|life meter]]. Red coins depict a sun-like design, let alone coins in general.
Red Coins make another appearance in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. Similar to ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', collecting all eight in a level would make a [[Shine Sprite]] appear. However, Red Coins do not affect the player's total amount of [[Yellow Coin]]s and are treated as a completely different currency altogether. Like [[Blue Coin]]s, Red Coins replenish 2 health points on [[Mario]]'s Life Meter.

A mechanic with Red Coins was implemented in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', and would become common in side-scrolling games of the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]] in general. Red Coins spawn by going through a [[Red Ring]], but collecting all of them only rewards a power-up, though if the player is in any form above [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]], a [[1-Up Mushroom]] appears instead.
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', there are [[Red Ring]]s in several levels, and if [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] goes through one, eight Red Coins appear. If he collects them all in the time limit, he is rewarded with a power-up. If Mario or Luigi are already using a power-up worth more than a Mushroom (i.e. a Fire Flower), he gets a 1-Up Mushroom instead of a power-up. Each Red Coin also increases the player's coin count by one, unlike ''Super Mario 64'' in which each red Coin was worth two regular coins.
 
The Red Coin sound effect takes priority over the [[coin]] sound effect, as seen when picking up a Red Coin surrounded by coins.<ref>{{cite|author=Yply42|date=May 9, 2020|url=youtu.be/qq6O7JqEtTo?t=719|title=''New Super Mario Bros.''

Red Coins and Red Rings are the same in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' as before, but in the added co-op multiplayer mode, collecting eight Red Coins spawns a power-up for all players except for those trapped in a [[bubble]]. [[Small Mario|Small characters]] do not receive a [[Super Mushroom]] as a reward, unlike before. Like before, if the player is fully powered-up, they will receive a 1-Up Mushroom when all of the Red Coins are collected.
Red Coins and Red Rings also make a return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They serve the exact same function as in the preceding game and they will still give the player a power up if all coins are collected. However, small [[Mario]] collecting the coins would make a [[Fire Flower]] (or other power-ups of a similar power) instead of a [[Mushroom]]. Like before, if the player had already gotten a Fire Flower or similar power-up, they would get a 1-Up Mushroom after collecting all the Red Coins.


====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
Red Coins and Red Rings appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. Their role is the same as in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', but the only difference is that five Red Coins spawn upon activating a Red Ring.<ref>{{cite|url=youtu.be/-qEH256zWkE?feature=shared&t=374|title=Evolution of Red Coins in Mario-Games (1995 - 2019)|timestamp=06:14|date=November 9, 2018|author=BEN ENTERTAINMENT|publisher=YouTube|language=en|accessdate=November 12, 2024}}</ref>
Red Coins later appear with Red Rings in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. Here, Mario must go through the Red Ring, then collect the Red Coins that appear before they disappear, like in other ''Mario'' side-scrolling games. Unlike other games, however, Mario must now only collect 5 of these coins.

Red Coins appear once again in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. Like in the previous ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games, Mario/Luigi must collect eight of them to earn a power-up, a 1-Up Mushroom, or a [[Golden Mushroom]] (only in [[Coin Rush]] mode), depending on his current form. When Mario/Luigi touches a [[Red Ring]], Red Coins could appear in predetermined locations, sometimes falling in parachutes.
Red Coins return as items in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. Their role is the same as in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', more than ''Super Mario 3D Land'', because eight Red Coins spawn from a Red Ring instead. However, in [[Coin Rush]] mode, a [[Gold Mushroom]] is the reward for collecting every Red Coin.<ref>{{cite|url=youtu.be/8PncjTT4mu0?feature=shared&t=370|title=New Super Mario Bros. 2 - Coin Rush - Gold Rush Pack|author=packattack04082|publisher=YouTube|language=en|timestamp=06:10|accessdate=November 12, 2024}}</ref>

Red Coins and Red Rings return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|their port]]. They function identically as in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. The similar [[Green Coin]]s and [[Green Ring]]s also debut.
Red Coins, along with Red Rings, reappear in the [[Wii U]] title ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. Once again, all eight Red Coins must be collected for an item to appear. The similar [[Green Coin]]s and [[Green Ring]]s make their debut appearance, which are used in a similar way but five (technically fifteen) must be collected instead of eight. Green Coins also disappear quicker.

Red Coins and Red Rings reappear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. They function as they do in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games, though they award the highest tier power-up (depending on the level) when collected, even when another such power-up is active. In ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'', the Red Coin jingle was changed from C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G  to a more natural progression: C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G.
Red Coins and Red Rings reappear in the [[Wii U]] game ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. They function as they did ''Super Mario 3D Land'', awarding the next tier power-up when collected (depending on the level) and the highest tier power-up when another power-up is active. Rather than appearing in groups of five as they did in its [[Super Mario 3D Land|predecessor]], the coins appear in groups of eight as they traditionally do in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series.

Red Coins and Red Rings reappear in ''[[Super Mario Run]]''. The game combines their role from the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games and ''Super Mario 3D Land'', namely since five Red Coins have to be collected, but the reward is always a [[Super Star]].
[[File:RedYoshiCoin.jpg||thumb|right|A Red Coin from ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''.]]
Red Coins are first seen in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', in which they are hidden behind regular [[Coin|Gold Coin]]s. In the original SNES version, red coins have a slightly red tint to them, so they just barely stick out as different amongst gold coins and some gold coins are also tinted in red (especially those collected from defeating certain enemies). When alone, neither feature is dramatic enough to be unambiguous, and in the Game Boy Advance version, red coins are often identical to gold coins. The only way to tell for sure which Gold Coins hide Red Coins is to grab them or use a [[Magnifying lens]]. Though visually the same size as gold coins, red coins are actually slightly larger, so that they are easier to grab. There are 20 Red Coins in each level, and grabbing one adds one point to [[Yoshi]]'s score tally at the end of the level.
 
====''Yoshi's Island DS''====
In the sequel to ''Yoshi's Island'', ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', Red Coins work the same way as they did in their first appearance; however, the Magnifying Lens was absent in that game. If the player can collect all the red coins in the level, the player gets a better score upon completing the level.


===''Mario Party'' series===
===''Mario Party'' series===
Red Coins sometimes appear in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. In ''[[Mario Party-e]]'', their first appearance in the series, Red Coins are one of the main collectibles in [[Waluigi's Reign]], where they are worth five points, more than the value of regular coins. In ''[[Mario Party DS]]'', Red Coins appear in bonus mini-games, taking the role that [[coin bag]]s had in previous ''Mario Party'' games, as they are, like coin bags, worth five Coins and less common. In ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'', Red Coins can be obtained in any of the Coin Chaos minigames, occasionally in Level 2 and very commonly in Level 3, but not in Level 1 unless an [[amiibo]] is used. With the [[Coin Bag (Mario Party: Star Rush)|Coin Bag]] item, five Red Coins will appear. Each Red Coin collected is worth three normal Coins. However, using the [[Double Medal]] item doubles this to a value of 6 normal Coins. If a [[Lava Bubble]] item is used, any source of coins, including Red Coins, and items burn up.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*''[[Princess Peach: Showtime!]]'' has a similar concept called [[Sparkle piece]]s, in the sense that eight collected pieces will reward [[Princess Peach|Peach]] with a [[Sparkle Gem]], which is the game's equivalent of a Power Star.
*In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', it is possible for the Red Coin sound effect to cancel out the sound effect of a [[Coin]]. This can occur when picking up a Red Coin surrounded by Coins.
