Exploring Dynasty Warriors: Origins' overworld offers various rewards to aid your battles. While Pyroxene farming yields gems, you'll also discover Old Coins, whose purpose isn't immediately apparent. Hundreds of Old Coins are scattered throughout the game, obtainable through several methods. This guide details their uses and acquisition strategies.
What To Use Old Coins For In Dynasty Warriors: Origins
Initially, Old Coins are unusable. Focus on the main story until Chapter 2. After completing the "Suppression of You Province," "Suppression of Jing Province," and "Suppression of Liang Province" battles, return to Ji. You'll encounter Sima Hui. Following the conversation and obtaining incense for the Innkeeper, the Shui Jing Retreat unlocks near Ji. Here, you can exchange Old Coins with Sima Hui. Besides checking bonds and rewatching interactions, you can redeem Old Coins for rewards based on accumulated amounts.
How To Get Old Coins In Dynasty Warriors: Origins

- Overworld exploration (look for small, close-range icons).
- Companion and officer Bond Interactions.
- Inn letters after story events.
- Regional Peace rewards at Waypoints.
Old Coin rewards vary in usefulness. Focus on gameplay; the coins will accumulate naturally.
