There is a purple button near the start of the world, to the left of the bus stop. Pushing it will spawn a bounce pad. Take it up to the top of the building with the glowing green entrance. There will be a series of rings you must run and jump through. As you do, you’ll step on increasingly taller boxes. After this, you’ll need to hit three karate kicks in a row, which makes the coin spawn on the roof of the building.

After you cross the bridge of falling busses beyond the bus stop, you’ll be in a cave. There is a kick balloon that you can kick by jumping to the platform below it. Using the balloon lets you cross a gap and reach an alcove where the gold coin is.

In Kandyville, you’ll need to find the conveyor belt that leads to kick balloons. You can actually see gold coin 4 from there. Take the balloons to land on the next platform and swing to the platform beyond that. To the right of this, there is a gold coin you can land next to if you go through the boost hoop.

After the snail race, use the balloon and conveyors to climb up a vertical area until you find a previously unbreakable grate. Double jump and ground pound to break it to make some rings of fire appear. Go through them to a combat encounter, and the next gold coin will be your reward.

To get the final coin of the world, you must complete the Dutchman’s quest. Find the three Dutchman imposters scattered throughout the world and report back to the Flying Dutchman.
- Imposter #1: This one is found behind a floating house on the right side of Kandyville.
- Imposter #2: Follow the power line that runs to the right of the Shadow Theater. This will lead you up a pipe and if you look to the left you can see the imposter Dutchman.
- Imposter #3: The final imposter is behind the painting at the entrance of the Rock Bottom Museum.
