Flower coins make their official debut in ''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''. Like coins, flower coins can be found throughout courses, and add to their own individual counter when collected. The player can hold up to 999 flower coins (999.9 in a [[Wonder Effect]]). {{footnote|main|a}}

During many [[Wonder Effect]]s, smaller variants of flower coins appear, each worth one-tenth of a regular flower coin and incrementing the flower coin counter by 0.1 when collected. In the course [[Condarts Away!]], when the [[Wonder Effect]] is active, these smaller coins will attempt to run away when characters get too close; they flip to reveal a pair of eyes and squirm away slowly. These coins usually disappear when a [[Wonder Seed]] is collected and the Wonder Effect ends. The flower coin counter then becomes an integer again, truncating the decimal part.

Flower coins can be spent in [[Poplin Shop]]s, allowing the player to purchase [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, [[Badge (Super Mario Bros. Wonder)|badges]], [[standee]]s and [[Wonder Seed]]s. Additionally, some [[Poplin]]s require flower coins to build bridges and destroy rocks on the world map.
