'''Coins''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|コイン|Koin}}''' ''Coin'') are equippable items in ''[[EarthBound Beginnings]]'' and ''[[EarthBound]]''. They are used as armor in both games.


==In {{vg|Mother}}==
==Usage==
The Coins in Mother have their own equipment slot, being displayed second from the top in the equipment subscreen on the status screen. They are comparable with the [[Ring]]s of the same game, as they both serve the same defense-raising purpose and they both have their own equipment slots, although the rings generally increase the user's defense with a bit more in terms of value.

==Trivia==
*The Lucky coin and Charm coin both have identical functions despite having different names. This is actually a transition oversight regarding items purchased in [[Summers]], as in order to make the buying and selling price higher there are two seperate items with identical names but different costs based upon where they are bought. In Japan both coins are named the Evil-repelling coin, but in English it is referred to as the Lucky coin when bought in Summers, and Charm coin when bought in Deep Darkness.
