Coins are a type of item meant for synthezing extra abilities, rather than stats, onto weapons in Dark Chronicle. Coins always add a positive effect, unless the intended weapon is already afflicted with the opposite ability, in which case the two cancel each other out and you end up with neither. This is one way to remove undesirable effects, such as Fragile and Poverty. Each Coin is engraved with a symbol relative to its type.
Coins are relatively rare early on, rarely appearing in treasure chests, but more frequently as Spheda rewards and prizes in the Fishing Contest and Finny Frenzy. The Dark and Indestructible Coins are sold by Woody Tailor, and Julia also sells the latter through Julia's Ringware, until Donny is recruited, who requires both of these coins (buying these Coins early on for later can be helpful).
Once Chapter 8 has been reached they will be easily available from Morton's Sundries, for a rather high price. The Zelmite Mine's Hell's Turning Point floor has a unique collection of chests where they only contain Coins, save for unique floor items.
