Mario Kart World's Free Roam mode has a lot to offer in the form of collectibles, with Peach Medallions being the most difficult of the lot. These coins are well hidden and require a lot of skill to gather so we're here to help!

Like P Switches and ? Panels, Peach Medallions are dotted all across the map and require Mario Kart mastery. We've put together a one-stop shop on where to find every single Peach Medallion in Mario Kart world below.

All Peach Medallions In Mario Kart World

This complete hub guide includes links to all of our individual regional guide, along with a map, some general tips, and info on what exactly these Peach Coins will unlock for you.

Peach Medallion Free Roam Regional Map

Like with our P Switches, we've broken the map up into ten individual areas, all marked and colour coded above. These correspond to the relevant guides listed below.

Where courses sit on the border, we've included them in one region, and listed it under the relevant section.

All Peach Medallions by Region & Course

Central Region Coins

Courses included: Choco Mountain, Moo Moo Meadows, Peach Stadium

Number of coins: 28

The Central Region is a big meadowlands area in the middle of Mario Kart World's map. Home to Choco Mountain, Moo Moo Meadows, and Peach Stadium, it's one of the bigger, busier places to explore thanks to the variety of water, terrain, and the courses.

Coastal Region Coins

Courses included: Salty Salty Speedway, Wario's Shipyard, Peach Beach

Number of coins: 16

On the east side of the map, you'll find Peach Beach and Salty Salty Speedway sitting on the coast, encouraging you to explore the high seas — and Wario's Shipyard. This coastal region is largely water based, with a few sandy islands and shoreline to hunt down those Peach Medallions.

Desert Coins

Courses included: Desert Hills, Shy Guy Bazaar

Number of coins: 17

Along the western shore of the map, you'll find a huge desert stretching all the way north to the laval region. There's only two courses here — Desert Hills and Shy Guy Bazaar — but there's a lot of sand filled with ruins and dangers to tempt you into exploring.

Fall Region

Courses included: Cheep Cheep Falls, Dandelion Depths

Number of coins: 13

One of the smallest areas on the map is also one of the most beautiful. Cheep Cheep Falls and Dandelion Depths are full of these trinkets, and you can follow the river paths around to find those remaining ones.

Forest Coins

Courses included: Acorn Heights, Boo Cinema, Mario Circuit

Number of coins: 26

Filled with trees, bushes, greenery, and... poison swamps, the Forest Region has an eclectic mix of courses. Acorn Heights is what you'd expect, with plenty of twists hiding coins, and Mario Circuit is a nice little transition between the forest and meadow, but a cinema in the forest? With lots of Medallions? Sure!

Jungle Safari Coins

Courses included: Dino Dino Jungle, Faraway Oasis, Great ? Block Ruins

Number of coins: 20

Maybe the most unique area in Mario Kart World is the one sitting in the southeast corner of the map, home to vast savannahs and animals big and small (and prehistoric). And thanks to Great ? Block Ruins, it even stretches out into the sky. You'll find everything you need for that, as well as Dino Dino Jungle and Faraway Oasis, here.

Lava Region Coins

Courses included: Airship Fortress, Bowser's Castle, Dry Bones Burnout, Toad's Factory

Number of coins: 22

Home to Bowser's own home, a Dia de los Muertos celebration, a Mario 3 staple, and Toad's own workplace, the Lava Region is one of the more dangerous. Stars are useful here for Dry Bones Burnout, but Bowser's Castle, Toad's Factory, and Airship Fortress all have their fare share of Medallions to collect, too.

Snow Region Coins

Courses included: DK Pass, Sky-High Sundae, Starview Peak

Number of coins: 18

There always has to be a snowy area in a video game. These snowy slopes and mountains are home to DK Pass, Sky-High Sundae, and Starview Peak — we're not sure we'd eat ice cream in the snow, though... Anyway, all the Medallions in these courses, and the mountains, are here.

South Sea Coins

Courses included: Crown City, DK Spaceport, Koopa Troopa Beach

Number of coins: 20

If you're looking for a vacation, then this southern area is the place for you, Crown City is full of everything you need, while DK Spaceport is a homage to an arcade classic. Or, if you just want the beach, then Koopa Troopa Beach is the place to be. Every coin in the South Sea can be found among these courses, and the waters between.

Wild West Coins

Courses included: Mario Bros. Circuit, Wario Stadium, Whistlestop Summit

Number of coins: 20

The red strip on the west side of the map is a canyon-based region with arid lands and lots of sights. From north to south, you'll find Peach Medallions in Wario Stadium, Mario Bros. Circuit, and Whistlestop Summit, and in some tricky, rocky parts.

What are Peach Medallions?

Feather Item

Peach Medallions little round, gold coins with Peach's face embellished on both sides. And they're one of the many collectibles you can find in Mario Kart World.

Plus, they glow more and are bigger than the standard Mario Coins, making them easy to spot.

How many coins are there?

Don't be shocked at the number, but there are 200 Peach Coins to collect. 200??? Yes, not as many as P Switches, but that's a lot.

Do Peach Medallions unlock Mirror Mode?

They do, but not on their own.

You'll need to collect at least 10 of the little coins to start with, along with a bunch of other requirements in both Free Roam and standard racing modes. For more help on flipping the map, here's our guide on How to Unlock Mirror Mode.

What do you get for collecting all the coins??

Admittedly... not much! For each individual Peach Medallion, you'll get a brand new sticker for your car for some cute customisation options.

In terms of collecting all of them? No idea yet! We've found them all as a collective, but none of us have all 200. So we'll let you know if there's anything special once we know.

Peach Medallion Tips

Some of these little coins are tricky to get, so you'll want to employ all the skills in your toolkit to gather each and every one.

Use the environment

Lots of these coins require you to use objects on and around the course to reach them. Things like geysers, Vine Piranha Plants, grind rails...

Essentially, if something is out of reach, think about what's around you and see how you can use it.

Grab a Feather

Sometimes, all you need is a little jump boost, and a Feather can give you that.

This old-school Mario Kart item might not seem super useful in a race, except for jumping over obstacles, but for collectibles, it's probably the best item in the game.

There are item boxes dotted around the map, and there are usually some close to a Peach Medallion's location, and in Free Roam, you're more likely to get a Mushroom, Star, or Feather than in a normal race.

Practice those Wall Rides

It wouldn't be a Mario Kart World collectible without some wall riding and fancy driving now, would it?

Some of these coins are going to need you to ride on walls, so make sure you look at our guide on how to become a wall ride pro.


If you need to take a break and do some other stuff in the open roads, make sure you have a look at our other Mario Kart World guides.
