-'''Bonus Coins''' are golden coins that appeared in the games ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. Bonus Coins can be earned by completing [[Bonus Level]]s (which are accessible via the hidden [[Bonus Barrel]]s scattered across the [[Northern Kremisphere]]). Only one Bonus Coin can be earned per bonus level; the [[Kong]]s cannot earn another coin for completing the same Bonus Level twice. Bonus Coins can be given to [[Boomer (bear)|Boomer]], one of the [[Brothers Bear]], allowing the demolitions expert to destroy the boulders that block access to the various levels of [[Krematoa]]. The same symbol on the Bonus Barrel is printed on the Bonus Coin.

Bonus Coins can be earned by completing [[Bonus Level]]s. Only one Bonus Coin can be earned per bonus level; the [[Kong]]s cannot earn another coin for completing the same Bonus Level twice. Bonus Coins are similar to the [[Kremkoin]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. Both are earned for completing Bonus Levels and both are needed to access the [[Lost World (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Lost World]] of their respective regions. The symbol on the Bonus Coin is the same symbol that is printed on the [[Bonus Barrel]]s.
-Each level has two Bonus Coins, but there are a few levels in [[Krematoa]] that have three Bonus Barrels. Also, some bosses have a Bonus Coin in their possession.
+==History==
+===''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!''===
+In the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] version of ''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'', there are a total of 85 Bonus Coins. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] port, there are a total of 98. Bonus Coins can be given to [[Boomer (bear)|Boomer]], one of the [[Brothers Bear]], allowing the demolitions expert to destroy the boulders that block access to the various levels of [[Krematoa]]. The [[Kong]]s must pay twenty-five Bonus Coins to Boomer, or twenty-six in the Game Boy Advance re-release, for him to break the boulder blocking off the path to the final level, [[Rocket Rush]].

+===''Donkey Kong Land III''===
+In ''Donkey Kong Land III'', there are a total of 78 Bonus Coins. In this game, the Bonus Coins are meant to be given to [[Bear (character)|Bear]]'s [[Sheepy Shop]]. Paying Bear a certain number of Bonus Coins, the amount of which differs by the world, will allow the player to play a [[Memory]] game. Oddly, the amount of Bonus Coins is not depleted from the player's count upon paying to play the Memory game.
