Hidden Coins[1] (also known as Dash Coins)[2] are a special type of coin in the Super Mario series. Hidden Coins are somewhat rare, and they appear in only a few levels.

Hidden Coins first appear as outlines of coins; if a character passes through the outlines, they will then turn into regular coins after a moment.
