Ace Coin

Ace Coins are special coins that appear exclusively in Super Mario Advance. Ace Coins are large, red, and sport an "A," and are named "Ace Coins" because a player needs to collect all five of these coins in order to completely beat, or "ace," the level. If a player finds all 5 Ace Coins in this level, the player will obtain a 1-Up. However, Ace Coins are somewhat difficult to obtain, even risking the characters' lives for them. These coins are very similar to the Dragon Coins, and similar coins known as Advance Coins appear in World-e of Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3.
