In Cuphead, the currency is coins; however, obtaining most of these coins can be just as challenging as the game itself. Since the core idea of the game is battling tough bosses, you should use coins to purchase weapons and charms that will make your journey easier. While some coins are hidden in various places in the overworld, most are obtained from Run & Gun levels.

These tables include information and images showing where to find the coins in the overworld and Run & Gun levels. We also included tips on how to defeat the coin-giving bosses in The King’s Leap.

Where To Find Every Coin

There are 40 coins you can find in Cuphead. With The Delicious Last Course DLC, 16 more coins are added to the game, bringing the total number of coins to 56. While the vast majority of coins are found in Run & Gun levels, some are hidden in the overworld, and others can be obtained through different means.

You can spend your coins at Porkrind’s Emporium, a shop found once on each island. At Porkrind’s Emporium, you can purchase weapons and charms. You can also switch your equipped weapons and charms from the Equip Card menu. The table below shows how many coins can be found on each island:

All Overworld Coin Locations

Overworld coins are those you can obtain without playing any Run & Gun levels. The game features a total of four islands (with the fourth added in The Delicious Last Course DLC). You start on Inkwell Isle One, and after defeating all the bosses on an island, you can move on to the next one.

What sets overworld coins apart from other coins is that they are considered hidden—you can’t find them just by casually exploring. Because of this, you need to know where to look or which NPC to talk to. The table below lists all the hidden coins you can find in the overworld:

The Pawns

Ms Chalice is fighting against the Pawns in Cuphead

When fighting Pawns, pay attention to where they jump, as they will leap directly towards you if you’re caught off guard, causing damage. Parried Pawns can jump back down, so be sure to watch the animation of the remaining Pawns to anticipate their next move.

2 coins

The Knight

The Knight is taunting the player in Cuphead

You can reduce The Knight’s health by parrying the helmet on its head with each successful parry.


The Knight has several attacks. In its first attack, it swings its sword completely, giving you a brief window to perform two parries. In the second attack, it raises its sword upward, leaving a single opportunity for a parry. In the third attack, The Knight charges toward you, and you can parry by jumping directly at it. If you’re fast enough, you can perform a second parry.


Try not to stay too far away from The Knight. If you distance yourself too much, it will quickly charge toward you, and its attack will be much harder to avoid.


You can defeat The Knight after performing 20 successful parries.

2 coins

The Bishop

The Bishop's head is floatin at the King's Leap in Cuphead

Watch the Bishop’s movement pattern and try to avoid hitting it when it’s not parryable. While extinguishing the candles, follow the ones that are close together. The bells moving around can be grouped together, so wait for them to disperse to avoid taking damage. You can defeat the Bishop after your ninth parry.

2 coins

The Rook

Ms Chalice is fighting against the Rook in Cuphead

You should parry the heads coming towards you and send them towards the Rook to deal damage. Be careful with the flying skulls; if a pink head and a skull land in the same spot, stop trying to parry and wait for a better opportunity. Don’t forget that you can crouch to avoid some of the sparks coming towards you. The Rook will be defeated when you send the eighth pink head to it.

2 coins

The Queen

Ms Chalice is fighting against The Queen in Cuphead

To parry the lion statues summoned by the Queen at the right time, try to stay mostly in the center of the area. Don’t fire the cannons randomly; only parry when you think you have the right angle to hit the Queen. While avoiding the eggs, you can move in place and dash instead of jumping. The Queen will be defeated with your eighth successful shot.
