Advance Coin

Advance Coins are a type of Coin featured exclusively in the World-e levels of Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3.
==Description==
Advance Coins take inspiration from Ace Coins from Super Mario Advance and Dragon Coins from Super Mario World. An Advance Coin bears a similar shape to an Ace Coin, even having an "A" on it, but is yellow like Dragon Coins. Advance Coins are the main collectible item within the World-e levels, each ranging from having one to five Advance Coins.
As Mario and Luigi collect Advance Coins along their journey, the three Toad Houses in World-e become accessible: at least 30 Advance Coins are required to enter the Blue Mushroom House; 50 for the Red Mushroom House; and 80 for the Orange Mushroom House.
There are a total of 147 Advance Coins, many of which could not be obtained outside of Japanese copies of Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 because the North American release had fewer e-Reader level cards released for it whereas the European had no e-Reader functionality. The levels available for the North American version had it so that only up 49 Advance Coins could be obtained in this version, leaving both the Red Mushroom House and Orange Mushroom House inaccessible. This issue was amended in both the Wii U and Nintendo Switch Online ports, in which every e-Reader level is available from the start.
