Single Gold Bars go for 110 coins each, whereas a '''Gold Bar x3''' costs 350 coins, 20 more coins than they would actually be worth. Gold Bars initially appear to have no effect but, in a way, they allow Mario to carry more Coins. Gold Bars can be sold back to any shop for 100 coins, and Gold Bars x3 can be sold back for 300 coins. This ensures Mario a supply of Coins if and when he should need it.

'''Gold Bars''' (or '''gold bars''') are items seen in a few games of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]].


Oddly enough, in ''Super Paper Mario'', [[Mario]] can give a [[Golden Leaf]] to [[Saffron]] to turn it into a Gold Bar, and a Gold Bar into a [[Golden Meal]], a useless item worth 65 coins (as opposed to the Gold Bar, which is worth up to 125 coins). Doing the former of the two can be a very good way to get some quick coins because the player can find Golden Leaves free.

History[edit]

Luigi's Mansion series[edit]

Gold Bar

Gold Bars first appear in Luigi's Mansion. They account for 100,000G each and are often found in Treasure Chests.

Gold Bars return in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon and Luigi's Mansion 3, once again being a collectible treasure item. However, they are worth only 20G instead of 100,000G. They are also much more common and can appear after Luigi vacuums a ghost or flashes a gold spider, gold mouse, gold bat, gold beetle, or Gold Robomb with the Strobulb.

Paper Mario series[edit]

Gold Bars are also used for storing money in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Super Paper Mario. Mario cannot use them in combat in any way, and he can only sell them for coins. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Gold Bars are sold at Deepdown Depot, where they can be sold back for 100 coins. In the Nintendo Switch remake, they can be sold for 101 coins at Toad Bros. Bazaar, 105 coins at Westside Goods, also 105 coins at Niff T.'s shop, 110 coins at Northwinds Mart, 112 coins at Pungent's Great Tree Shop, or 130 coins at the Sales Stall.

In Super Paper Mario, Mario can give a Golden Leaf to Saffron to turn it into a Gold Bar and a Gold Bar into a Golden Meal, a useless item worth 50 coins (as opposed to the Gold Bar, which is worth up to 120 coins) players can make if they ever find themselves having too much money.
