Character coin

Character Coins or Baby Coins are coins that the Yoshis can collect in Yoshi's Island DS. The Yoshi can only collect a Baby Coin with the baby on Yoshi's back that is seen on the coin. Having all eight Baby Coins in a world with the exception of world five which has seven, a mini-game in the game's hard mode is unlocked.

Trivia

 * There were character coins of Baby Wario and Baby Bowser, but they were cut out in the final version of the game.
