Gray Coins,[1][2] also described as silver coins,[3] are coins that appear in Super Mario World. Pressing a Gray P Switch turns all enemies into Gray Coins for a limited time. However, Gray Coins work differently from standard coins in this game; if enough are collected, they give extra lives, similar to jumping on numerous enemies in succession. In certain levels, a trick involving hordes of enemies and a Gray P Switch can be executed to earn dozens of extra lives. This goes in order with collecting Gray Coins:
- 400 – 1 Gray Coin
- 800 – 2 Gray Coins
- 1,000 – 3 Gray Coins
- 2,000 – 4 Gray Coins
- 4,000 – 5 Gray Coins
- 8,000 – 6 Gray Coins
- 1UP – 7 Gray Coins
- 2UP – 8 Gray Coins
- 3UP – 9 Gray Coins or more
Gray Coins appear in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour in the Coin Shoot mode. They are worth 40 coins when the ball is close to them.
