Advance Coin

Advance Coins are special coins that appear exclusively in Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3. They appear only in the new World-e levels. They are similar to Ace Coins in appearance, except for the fact that they're yellow.

Levels have anywhere from 1-5 Advance Coins in them. If Mario or Luigi collect all the Advance Coins in a level, they will earn an Extra Life.

If the player accumulates enough Advance Coins, they can enter a special World-e Toad House where they can play a special Minigame. However, due to the fact that a limited number of levels were released outside of Japan, non-Japanese gamers will be unable to gather enough Advance Coins needed to enter the other two Toad Houses.
