**The highest located coin in the game is beside the large rock on Rock Island.
 
**The lowest located coin is a toss-up between the one in the volcano lair, in the well, and on the rogue wave talking to Cueball. (There's also a coin under the lava but it's not at the bottom of the room.)
 
**On top of the eggs in the stork nest, on the far right of the image, there are ten coins. These are the most coins that can be collected in one place outside the play area.

****See example here [http://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/images/0/0b/1608_with_coin_1070_1095.png with coin] vs. [http://xkcd.com/1608/1070:-1095+s.png without coin]. The coin is here a lamp, and then when it is removed it reveals an exploded lamp and also one more insect. This means that the coins can never be hidden by anything black, and although coins can be hidden away in a secret lair, including under water or lava or holes in the Washington Monument.

*See a picture here of the coin delivery after [[1608: Hoverboard/Screen-shots#Reaching all the boundaries|reaching all coins and all the boundaries]].

****Because if there were any coins in these dark areas, the coins would still be shown on top of the image.
