Kong Tokens[1] are items in Donkey Kong Land. They are large coins roughly the size of the Kongs that depict Donkey Kong's head on a side and Diddy Kong's head on the other side. Kong Tokens commonly appear throughout every level, where their placement can include areas that require effort to reach, hidden areas (including Bonus Levels), and even in plain sight. Kong Tokens are used in certain Bonus Level challenges to be launched from a quickly moving Button Barrel individually for the player character to collect. Catching a Kong Token awards an extra life. The Button Barrel stops releasing Kong Tokens once all of them have been used up. The game does not save the number of collected Kong Tokens, so resetting the game causes the player to lose every collected Kong Token.
