'''e-Coins''' are a rare type of coin found only in [[World-e]] of ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Only three of the eleven levels that were released outside of Japan actually have their own e-Coin. e-Coins are fairly well hidden. Little is known about the e-Coins, except that each one is unique and features a different image on one side. The other side of an e-Coin has the letter "e" on it. Each e-Coin can only be collected once before going on display in World-e's castle. They appear to serve no purpose other than bragging rights.

'''e-Coins'''<ref>''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide back cover.</ref> are a rare type of [[coin]] found only in [[World-e]] in ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. As only eleven [[level]]s of World-e were initially released outside the Japanese version of the game, only three e-Coins are obtainable across these eleven levels. However, as the [[Virtual Console]] release of the game on the [[Wii U]] and the [[Nintendo Switch]] application [[Game Boy Advance - Nintendo Switch Online]] both include all levels from World-e, all versions of the game on the Wii U and Switch contain all eight e-Coins.


===e-Coins and their levels===
Each e-Coin features the [[e-Reader]] "e" on one side, which is shown in levels; the other side contains an image of a [[List of characters|character]] or [[List of power-ups|power-up]]. Each e-Coin can be collected only once by [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] before being displayed in the [[e-Coin Castle]], where e-Coins reside in individual frames, displaying their unique image, with their levels of origin listed underneath. Any e-Coins found within [[block]]s or under [[grass|grass tufts]] are replaced by [[1-Up Mushroom]]s in their respective levels.
Note that only the first three coins are in levels that were released in America.
 
Besides display and [[Completion#Super Mario Bros. 3|completion]], e-Coins serve no functional purpose, and there is no reward for obtaining one or all of them.
 
e-Coins appear in the following levels:


*[[Mushroom]] e-Coin: [[Vegetable Volley]]
