| '''Yellow Coins''' (sometimes known as '''Yellow Star Coins''') are the primary type of [[coin]] featured in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' (and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''). A single Yellow Star Coin increases [[Mario|Mario's]] (or one of his friends') coin total by one when acquired. These coins also recover one [[HP]]. If Mario collects fifty coins on a stage, he will be rewarded with an [[Extra Life]] after collecting a [[Power Star]]. If the plumber collects one hundred coins in one course, the plumber will not only earn a secret Power Star, but will also gain two extra lives upon leaving the level. Weak enemies often yield Yellow Star Coins when defeated.

| Yellow Coins also appear in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' with the same purpose as in ''Super Mario 64''. However, when the player collects 100 coins, the [[Shine Sprite]] will not appear right above Mario, but will instead appear at a set area. There are some Yellow Coins that are fakes since they don't spin and move. They are actually Boos with coins inside them. They only appear in [[Sirena Beach]]'s hotel. Just as with the fake [[Blue Coin]]s, if the player controlling Mario gets too close to a "coin", the Boo will appear.

| ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' also feature Yellow Coins, but in these games, their only use was to restore Mario's health. Yellow Coins do not offer Mario any stars if he collect 100 of them; that task was taken over by the [[Purple Coin]]s. Yellow Coins in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', however, serve a greater role than in ''Super Mario Galaxy'', as they are needed to feed to [[Hungry Luma]]s for Mario to advance to a new planet.

| The Yellow Coins also appear in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], when [[Mario]] or [[Dr. Mario (character)|Dr. Mario]] perform their B up move, [[Super Jump Punch]]. [[Luigi]] is also able to make ''one'' Yellow Coin appear by not sweetspotting his B up.
