Geocache Description:


Coin Blocks have appeared in nearly every Super Mario game, debuting in Super Mario Bros., with Block-styled Coin Blocks debuting in Super Mario World. In most games, there is a time limit for how long it will continue to give the player coins instead of having a set number of coins. If the player strikes a Coin Block fast enough, they can get about 10 coins, which is usually the most coins a player can get from a Coin Block, though quite a few games make it possible to obtain more. However, if a Coin Block is left alone after the first hit, it will only give two coins. Starting from New Super Mario Bros. and in games where the player is able to Ground Pound, ground pounding onto the Coin Block and holding the button that activated the Ground Pound will allow the player to collect coins at a faster rate, though only if they are in a powered-up form.

Back in my days when I used to spend countless hours playing this game, it was such of game pressure to make sure you obtain all the coins in a level. Oh, those good old days lol, man did I used to play Nintendo a lot. Please make sure you re-hide as found or better as the container is unique and theme related.
