Red Coins are red-colored coins similar to the Yellow Coin. When Mario touches one, it spawns a Secret Number and plays a sound. This sound increases in pitch through an octave in every version of the game except the Japanese N64 and Shindou N64 versions. When the eighth Red Coin is collected, a Red Coin Star has a four-frame delay before it spawns at the Star Marker. Note that spawning a 100 Coin Star has no delay.

No Red Coins load during the level, except in cases of a loading zone in the level. Other than Tiny-Huge Island's Red Coins, all Red Coins are found in the main area of a level.
