A '''10-Coin''' (or '''10 Coin'''),<ref>{{cite|author=Hoffman, Chris|title=''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'' Official Nintendo Player's Guide|date=2005|isbn=1598120069|page=10}}</ref> also referred to as a '''10 Gold Coin'''<ref>{{cite|title=''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3'' instruction booklet|page=9|language=American English|publisher=Nintendo of America|date=1994}}</ref> and originally '''Big Coin''',<ref>{{cite|title=''Yoshi's Safari'' instruction booklet|page=17|date=1993|language=American English|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> is a special kind of [[coin]] that is worth ten gold coins, as the name implies. It has made appearances throughout the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]].

Big Coins worth 10 coins debuted in ''[[Yoshi's Safari]]''. They can be found in [[Flying ? Block]]s within stages, and are worth no points. In this game, they have the imprint of a [[Super Star]].

 

===''Hotel Mario''===

Rainbow coins that are worth ten regular coins appear in ''[[Hotel Mario]]''.

In ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]'', 10 Gold Coins look like normal coins, but instead of their usual "1" symbol, the kanji 「十」 (meaning 'ten') is stamped on them. They seldom appear after defeating certain enemies in a specific way and when they are collected, they make a unique noise.  

Wario can produce these items from his inventory, which will cost him ten of his already collected coins, by pressing {{button|gb|b}} and "up" on the {{button|gb|pad}}. The coin can then be thrown to defeat enemies. This technique is also necessary to open [[Goal door (Wario Land series)|goal door]]s and complete the course.

Coins that are worth ten regular coins appear in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', along with gold coins and [[Frog Coin]]s. In this game they look just like regular coins, but are bigger than their normal counterparts. 10 Gold Coins sometimes appear after a larger enemy is bested.

[[File:Large Coin.png|frame]]

10 Coins appear as frequent collectables in the ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (series)|Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' series, starting with ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]''. They are referred to as '''Large Coins''' throughout the series' electronic manuals and in-game level editors. Aside from their size, Large Coins can be distinguished from their smaller counterparts by the stars imprinted on their faces. In ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis'', Large Coins increase the score in a level by 500 points upon being collected, while in subsequent titles, including ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!]]'', ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars]]'', and ''[[Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge]]'', they are worth 1000 points instead. Like other items, Large Coins are picked up by the [[Mini]]s as they walk. In ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!]]'', large coins are worth [[Five Coin|5 coins]] instead of 10.

===''Mario & Luigi'' series===

10-Coins also appear in the ''[[Mario & Luigi (series)|Mario & Luigi]]'' series starting from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', but instead, they are coins with a 10 on them. They are found in [[? Block]]s or around the overworld, and can be obtained from defeating certain enemies. They are slightly bigger than regular coins and they give the player ten coins when collected.

====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====

10 Coins appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where they have almost the exact same design as those of ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'', though they are roughly twice as big as regular coins. They are one of the prizes found in [[Roulette Coin Block]]s, and are used to distribute 10 coins, 30 coins, and 50 coins.

====''Super Mario Maker 2''====

10-Coins are available as a course element in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. [[30-Coin]] and [[50-Coin]] variants are also available. This time, 10-Coins are larger than in ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'' and have a similar size to [[Star Coin]]s.

In ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', 10 Coins often appear after clearing a stage.

 

In ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', 10-Coins appear in various areas throughout the game, and also appear at the end of battles. They have a similar gilded cardboard aesthetic to single coins and have a larger size and higher-pitch chime, but are smaller and lower-pitch than 100-Coins.

 

10 Coins appear in ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'', having the same size as in the ''Super Mario'' games compared to regular coins. They depict [[Yoshi]]'s head on one side (making them resemble [[Dragon Coin]]s), and the number "10" on the other.
