:I have the instruction book, and yes, it does have the Rareware logo on it. It inhabits the entire middle portion of the coin, and I've also noticed a tiny (and I mean TINY) <sub>TM</sub> on the coin; it's tiny and gold-yellow in color like the Rareware logo. I admit, it ''is'' surprising to find the Rareware logo on it though. I'll try to find a picture of it, but I can ''assure you'' that it is the actual Rareware logo. {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig|Possibly an error left over from the first DKR?}}

::There's a tiny picture of it here: [http://www.gamespot.com/pages/image_viewer/frame_lead.php?pid=933008&img=1#next Images 32-34 have the pics]. It's the best I could find for now, but I'll keep looking. {{User:Stooben Rooben/sig|D'oh!}}

==Move to Rareware Coin or Split==
{{SettledTPP}}
{{ProposalOutcome|green|split 0-4-0}}
As soon as I saw this article, I knew that this had to be done. This article is about both the coins from ''[[Diddy Kong Racing DS]]'' '''and''' the Rareware Coin from ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', yet the title is '''Coin (Diddy Kong Racing DS)''' instead of the more appropriate '''Rareware Coin'''. I'm not asking to split the two coins into separate articles; both are silver coins with the Rareware insigna, and both wouldn't make very lengthy articles alone. However, if they are going to stay together we need to have a better title. I think that '''Rareware Coin''' would fit the bill nicely and represent the coin's appearance in both games much better.

===Move to Rareware Coin===
===Split into Two Articles===
#{{User|Lumastar}} Per Baby Luigi.
#{{User|Mario}} If [[Nintendo Coin]] exists, then a split containing [[Rareware Coin]], the counterpart to the Nintendo Coin would make sense. Additionally, they items with different names and different purposes, so yeah, a split makes sense.
#{{User|Pseudo-dino}} These probably aren't supposed to be the same item, and they have completely different functions.
#{{User|LinkTheLefty}} Agreed. Rareware Coin shouldn't have been given another game's identifier, and they have entirely different purpose and 'rarity' in both titles.
===Oppose===
===Comments===
Aren't coins called..."coins" in Diddy Kong Racing DS? If that's an official name for the coins in Diddy Kong Racing DS, a split would be better. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 13:18, 23 February 2015 (EST)
:I checked, and they are. I'll add a split option and update the proposals page. [[User:Lumastar|<span style="color:green">Lumastar</span>]] ([[User talk:Lumastar|<span style="color:blue>talk]]) [[Image: SMG GreenLuma.jpg|30px ]]
== Merge to coin ==
As the above section shows, the only reason this is its own page is being erroneously lumped with the [[Rareware Coin]] previously. However, given the wide variety of games already covered by the [[coin]] article, I fail to see why this should be split. Coins is coins. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 20:09, February 28, 2023 (EST)
:Not gonna lie, I almost thought this was the Silver Coins, which I'd probably disagree. But in this case, I can see where you're coming from and personally, I can agree. They're used as currency, like any other coin, I think merging them would be fine. {{User:Tails777/sig}}
:There is a part in the Silver Coin article that says "In DKR DS the Silver Coins still exist in the single race mode, and are redesigned with a Rare symbol on the sides". Isn't it the same item? [[User:Proyecto N|Proyecto N]] ([[User talk:Proyecto N|talk]]) 20:04, June 29, 2023 (EDT)
::No, this article's item replaces bananas in normal races and are used to buy things from Taj. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 21:22, June 29, 2023 (EDT)
:::I disagree completely. We shouldn't merge it (in my opinion) because A- It looks completely different and B- It has different uses. [[User:Marionotame|Marionotame]] ([[User talk:Marionotame|talk]])
::::??? As has been stated, there's no 100% consistent design or use for the subject of the [[coin]] article. Also, the use here is "collect and spend," as most appearances are. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 01:14, December 30, 2023 (EST)
== Merge this page with Coin ==
{{SettledTPP}}
{{ProposalOutcome|passed|11-0|merge}}
[[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] and [[User:Tails777|Tails777]] and right. The coins in ''Diddy Kong Racing DS'' are used as currency. I was just wondering if there is a possibility to merge this page with [[Coin]].

===Support===
#{{User|GuntherBB}} Per proposal
#{{User|Super Mario RPG}} I agree. The only difference with these coins is the aesthetic.
#{{user|Doc von Schmeltwick}} - Coins is coins. If the ''Luigi's Mansion'' coins can be in the main coin article, so too can these.
#{{User|Waluigi Time}} Per all.
#{{User|Camwoodstock}} Per all. It's literally just another type of coin, with only different visuals--nobody's going to argue that any non-standard designed coin should have its own article... ;P
#{{User|Mario}} [[File:Coin Stack Artwork - Super Mario 3D World.png|40px]]
#{{User|EvieMaybe}} money, money, money... must be funny....
#{{User|MegaBowser64}} Hey, must be the money!
#{{User|Tails777}} A coin's a coin, my opinion has seen no... change.
#{{User|ThePowerPlayer}} No reason to coin a new article.
#{{User|TheFlameChomp}} Per all.
