Where to get Gold Coin in Palworld
5 Pals drop Gold Coin, and they are not equal — Mimog (level 80+ only) gives 8500–11000 at 100%, which is the best return per kill in the game. Every rate below is the game's own figure.
Each Pal here gives more Gold Coin per kill than every Pal that spawns earlier — hunt the highest one you can reach.
Not a speed ranking: spawn density and kill time are not in the game files, so “fastest” is not something this page can prove.
Pals that drop Gold Coin
| Pal | Rate | Amount | Avg per kill | Where |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mimog | 100% | 8500–11000 | 9750 | |
 Mau | 50% | 100–200 | 75 | |
 Dumud Gild | 50% | 100–200 | 75 | |
 Vanwyrm | 10% | 10–40 | 2.5 | |
 Direhowl | 3% | 10–20 | 0.45 |
Rate and amount are stated by the game. “Avg per kill” is ours — the rate multiplied by the mean of the amount range — so you can compare a rare big drop against a reliable small one without doing it in your head.
Making it instead
Gold Coin has a recipe, so past a certain point it is cheaper to build than to hunt.
| Makes | From | Work |
|---|---|---|
| 20000 Gold Coin | 30× Ingot | 2,000,000 |
Everything Gold Coin needs, all the way down
Ingredients that are themselves crafted are expanded here. A recipe list that stops at the first line sends you off to look up four more pages; this is the whole tree.
Buying it
A merchant sells Gold Coin outright, from 1 gold. If you are short on time rather than gold, this beats farming — merchant locations are listed separately.
Chests, expeditions, nodes and other sources
The game stores these as weights rather than percentages — an item’s chance is its weight against everything else in the same grade. The odds below are that division done, so you can compare a route against hunting.
