Coins are your go-to currency in Super Mario Maker 2. They can be used to unlock costumes, rebuild Princess Peach’s castle and much more. While initial costs may not seem too rough, you’ll need 1,000 coins to complete the final project and net the Mario Builder costume. It becomes available after finishing all the Jobs in Story Mode so there’s plenty of spending that has to be done before that as well.

So how do you go about earning coins? The most obvious answer is to replay past levels. Fortunately, there are certain Jobs which offer better coin payouts than others. Let’s take a look at some of the best here.

How To Farm Coins:

Job 55: You essentially ride a car through the level and it’s pretty easy-going. A 50 coin is available to collect here so if you’re crafty enough, it’s possible to earn 117 coins total in one run through the level.

Job 56: Though only 80 coins have to be collected to complete the mission, you can collect as much as 150 coins in a single run.

Job 70: Short and sweet, this level provides 80 coins in the roughly 30 seconds it takes to complete.

Job 76: You have to collect 50 coins to complete the level. While there aren’t as many coins as Job 56 overall, you’re still looking at about 80 coins total if you collect them all.

Job 90: Another short level, it provides 55 coins in a few seconds if you collect everything.

If you want even more stuff to unlock in Super Mario Maker 2, then consider creating a Mii. This is your own personal avatar that can be presented online (though Nintendo Online is required for it). Head on over to the Course World in-game to create it. From there, completing different challenges will unlock different clothes and outfits for your Mii to flaunt.
