Bonus Coin

A Bonus Coin is a type of coin found in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III. Bonus Coins replace the Kremkoins from the previous game, won by winning a Bonus Level via Bonus Barrel. In fact, the very symbol on the coin is of the bonus barrel.

There are a total of 85 Bonus Coins in DKC3. By saving them up, they can be given to Boomer in order to lock additional levels in Krematoa. For the first four levels, every 15 the Kongs give, Boomer will set an explosive and make the next level in the world free. The Kongs must pay 25 Bonus Coins to make the last level free. At the end of each level, the Kongs would get a Cog.

In DKL3, there are 78 Bonus Coins. They are used to be able to play Bear's Card Game in all the Sheepy Shops. The amount of Bonus Coins required to play varied among each world, but increased each time. Since the card games must be played to get the DK Coins and Watches needed to fight K. Rool for the last time, Bonus Coins are a necessity.
