What To Use Old Coins For In Dynasty Warriors: Origins
You won’t be able to use Old Coins during the first chapter of the game, so at first just ignore them and progress the main story. After beginning Chapter 2, complete the following main story battles:
- Suppression of You Province
- Suppression of Jing Province
- Suppression of Liang Province
After completing these three main battles you’ll return to the city of Ji and meet a man named Sima Hui. After finishing up the conversation and going to get incense for the Innkeeper, the Shui Jing Retreat will now be in the overworld right next to the city of Ji. Here you can talk to Sima Hui, and use your Old Coins. While you can also check your bonds and rewatch old Interactions, you can also turn in Old Coins for rewards.
Rewards are given out by hitting specific milestones with Old Coins, so always turn them in when passing by.

How To Get Old Coins In Dynasty Warriors: Origins
With 500 Old Coins to find in the game, it’s best not to try and farm them early on, as you’ll slowly unlock more ways to farm them. The various methods are:
- Finding them in the overworld.
- Get them from Bond Interactions with your companions and officers.
- Getting them from letters in the Inn after story moments.
- Regional Peace rewards collected at Waypoints.
When looking for Old Coins in the overworld, the icon that represents them is very small and only appears once you get close, unlike Pyroxene. The rewards for Old Coins range in usefulness, and overall you should focus on playing the game and they will come naturally.
