Coinite is a legendary rarity ore that appears as a sandy-colored coin with a golden dollar sign imprinted on it. What makes this ore absolutely incredible is its staggering 15x sell value multiplier—meaning every piece you mine is worth 15 times more than normal ores when sold.
Here’s what makes Coinite truly special: it’s designed primarily as a financial ore rather than a crafting material. While you technically can use it for forging weapons and armor, that’s actually a waste of its potential. The real magic happens when you take Coinite straight to Miner Fred’s Shop and sell it directly.
After the Maze Update, Coinite also serves as payment for the Ferry Operator to access Iceberg Island, where you can discover the Secret Maze and unlock the powerful Heavenly Pickaxe. So you’ll want to keep some pieces in your inventory for travel while selling the rest for massive profits.
Before you even think about mining your first Coinite, there are several critical requirements you absolutely must meet. Trust me, trying to rush to Crimson Depths without proper preparation is a recipe for frustration.
First and foremost, you need to reach EXP Level 100 or higher. This isn’t negotiable—the Crimson Depths area where Coinite spawns is endgame content designed for experienced players. If you’re not at level 100 yet, focus on completing quests and grinding in earlier areas first.
You also must unlock Frostspire Expanse by reaching level 70 and obtaining the Portal Tool. The Portal Tool comes from completing the Wizard NPC’s tutorial quests, so make sure you’ve finished those. Once you hit level 70, use the Portal Tool to travel to Island 3 (Frostspire Expanse).
This is where many players get stuck. You must complete the new cave quests from Sensei Moro before you can access Crimson Depths. These quests will guide you through the various cave systems in Frostspire Expanse and prepare you for the challenges ahead.
Here’s the big one: Coinite is located inside the Crimson Depths section of Raven Cave, and that cave is locked behind a door. To unlock Raven Cave, you must complete Raven Quest Part 2 to receive the Red Cave Key.
Let me break down the Raven Quest chain for you:
Raven Quest 1:
Raven Quest 2:
Once you have that Red Cave Key, head to the massive stone door behind the Forging Station in Frostspire Expanse, interact with it, and boom—you’ve unlocked permanent access to Raven Cave and the Crimson Depths within.
Now let’s talk tools. You need a pickaxe with at least 550 Mining Power to break Medium Red Crystals, and a Prismatic Pickaxe (650+ Mining Power) for Large Red Crystals and Heart of the Island Stone.
Here are your pickaxe options:
I strongly recommend getting at least the Prismatic Pickaxe before you start farming Coinite seriously. The higher-tier pickaxes come with increased luck stats that significantly improve your already-slim chances of finding this legendary ore.

Alright, you’ve completed all the prerequisites and you’re finally ready to hunt for Coinite. Let me show you exactly where to find it.
Coinite can only be found in Crimson Depths, which is located deep inside Raven Cave in Frostspire Expanse. Once you’ve unlocked the Raven Cave using the Red Cave Key, enter through the door behind the Forging Station.
The cave consists of an L-shaped corridor with two pillars, one near the entrance and one near the end, with the Heart of the Island at the far end. The Crimson Depths section is characterized by its distinctive red lighting and crystalline formations that create an eerie, otherworldly atmosphere.
You’ll know you’re in the right place when the entire cave is bathed in red light and you see massive red crystals jutting out from the walls and floors. This is where the magic happens.
Coinite has a 1/15,151 chance of dropping from three specific rock types: Medium Red Crystal, Large Red Crystal, and Heart of the Island Stone. All three have the exact same drop rate, so your choice of which to farm comes down to accessibility and secondary ore benefits.
Medium Red Crystal:
Large Red Crystal:
Heart of the Island Stone:
My personal recommendation? Start with Medium Red Crystals to get comfortable with the cave layout and enemy spawns. Once you’ve got the hang of it and upgraded to a Prismatic Pickaxe or better, focus on Heart of the Island Stone for maximum efficiency—you might get lucky and score a Stolen Heart alongside your Coinite.
Let’s be real: a 1/15,151 drop chance is absolutely brutal. Without optimization, you could mine for hours and never see a single Coinite. But with the right strategies, you can dramatically improve your odds and make this grind much more bearable.
Luck boosts can improve your Coinite odds from 1/15,151 to approximately 1/8,000, which nearly doubles your chances. Here’s every method I’ve found to maximize luck:
1. Luck Potions Purchase these from Maria’s Potion Shop in the main area. They provide temporary luck boosts that stack with other bonuses. I always make sure to have at least 5-10 in my inventory before any serious farming session.
2. Dedicated Player Achievement Equip the Dedicated Player skill from your Achievements inventory—depending on your total playtime, this can boost luck between 8% to 40%. If you’ve been playing for a while, this is essentially free luck that you should always have equipped.
3. Miner Shard Runes with Luck Trait Attach a Miner Shard rune that has the Luck trait to your pickaxe. Runes can be obtained from defeating enemies or purchased from specific NPCs. Always check the marketplace for good luck-based runes.
4. Race Selection Your chosen race can provide significant luck bonuses. Some races in The Forge have inherent luck buffs that apply to all mining activities. If you don’t have a good luck-boosting race, consider rerolling—you can get free race rerolls from redemption codes.
5. Luck Totems Luck Totems provide a temporary 25% luck boost and can be purchased with Robux or obtained by redeeming active The Forge codes. These are premium items, but if you’re serious about Coinite farming, they’re worth the investment.
Stack all of these together and you’ll have the maximum possible luck, making those legendary ore drops much more frequent.
Beyond luck, there are several mining techniques that can increase your Coinite per hour:
Multi-Mining Strategy: Practice positioning yourself between multiple crystals close together to essentially double your chances per swing. This is especially effective with Large Red Crystals. Find clusters of 2-3 crystals, stand in the optimal position, and each pickaxe swing hits multiple rocks simultaneously.
Resource Route Optimization: Create a farming route that hits all the major crystal spawns in Crimson Depths. I typically start at the entrance, work my way along the left wall hitting all Medium Red Crystals, then swing back along the right side, and finish at the Heart of the Island Stone. This ensures you’re not wasting time wandering around randomly.
Enemy Management: Crimson Depths contains multiple cultists and spider variants that can interrupt your mining. Either clear them out first or learn to mine while dodging their attacks. I prefer clearing a small area first, then mining in peace for a few minutes before enemies respawn.
Portal Tool Efficiency: Use your Portal Tool to quickly return to the cave entrance if you need to sell ores or restock potions. This saves tons of time compared to walking back and forth.
You’ve finally got some Coinite in your inventory congratulations! Now let’s talk about how to turn that legendary ore into massive wealth.
Coinite’s primary purpose is not for forging weapons or armor despite being a Legendary ore—instead, take your collected ore directly to Miner Fred’s Shop and sell it immediately.
Here’s why selling is superior to crafting:
Direct Selling Benefits:
Why Crafting is a Waste:
I learned this the hard way when I first got Coinite and immediately used it to forge a weapon, thinking the 15x would apply to the weapon’s value. Nope—big mistake. Just sell the ore directly and watch your gold counter explode.
One Coinite is required to pay the Ferry Operator for each trip to Iceberg Island. This is the only required use of Coinite besides selling.
Here’s how it works:
At Iceberg Island, you can:
My recommendation: Keep 5-10 Coinite in your inventory for ferry trips, and sell everything else. The ferry cost is minimal compared to the selling profits, and you’ll want the flexibility to travel to Iceberg Island whenever needed.
While I’ve strongly advised against using Coinite for crafting, let me explain when it might make sense:
If you’re specifically crafting equipment with the sole intention of selling it for profit (not using it), Coinite could theoretically boost the sell value of that equipment by 15x. However, this strategy is extremely risky because:
Unless you’re an endgame player with Coinite to spare and you’re testing crafting meta strategies, just stick to selling the ore directly.
After helping dozens of friends get their first Coinite, I’ve noticed players making the same mistakes over and over. Let me save you some headaches:
Mistake 1: Farming Without Luck Boosts Going into Crimson Depths with base luck is like trying to win the lottery with one ticket. Always max out your luck stats before farming. The difference between 1/15,151 and 1/8,000 odds is massive over several hours.
Mistake 2: Using Low-Tier Pickaxes Void Pickaxe is the minimum requirement, but it’s slow and has poor luck stats. Invest in a Prismatic Pickaxe or better—the faster mining speed means more ore attempts per hour, which compounds with luck to significantly improve your Coinite yield.
Mistake 3: Farming Solo in High-Traffic Areas Heart of the Island Stone is popular and often has multiple players competing for it. If the area is crowded, switch to Medium or Large Red Crystals where you’ll have less competition and more rocks available.
Mistake 4: Not Managing Inventory Crimson Depths drops tons of valuable ores besides Coinite. Your inventory will fill up fast. Bring a Portal Tool and make regular selling trips, or you’ll waste time with a full inventory unable to mine.
Mistake 5: Ignoring Enemy Threats The cave contains strange cultists and spider variants that can kill you if you’re not careful. Dying means losing time respawning and running back. Either bring healing potions or clear enemies first.
Mistake 6: Crafting Instead of Selling I can’t stress this enough—unless you have a very specific reason, always sell Coinite directly. The guaranteed 15,000+ gold per piece beats any crafting gamble.
Mistake 7: Giving Up Too Soon Legendary ores are called legendary for a reason. You might mine for an hour before seeing your first Coinite. That’s normal. The key is optimization (luck, pickaxe, technique) and persistence.
Coinite has a base drop rate of 1/15,151 from Medium Red Crystal, Large Red Crystal, and Heart of the Island Stone. With maximum luck boosts from potions, totems, runes, and achievements, this can improve to approximately 1/8,000.
Coinite can only be found in Crimson Depths, located deep inside Raven Cave in Frostspire Expanse. You must unlock Raven Cave by completing Raven Quest Part 2 to receive the Red Cave Key.
You need to reach EXP level 100 or higher to access the Crimson Depths area where Coinite spawns. You also need level 70 to unlock Frostspire Expanse initially.
The minimum requirement is a Void Pickaxe (550 Mining Power) for Medium Red Crystals, but a Prismatic Pickaxe (650+ power) is strongly recommended for all crystal types. Higher-tier pickaxes like Dragon Head Pickaxe (750+ power) are ideal due to their increased luck stats.
Yes, Coinite is absolutely worth farming because of its 15x value multiplier. A single piece sells for 15,000+ gold, and dedicated farming sessions can generate millions of gold per hour. It’s also required for ferry access to Iceberg Island.
No, it’s strongly not recommended by the community—the 15x sell multiplier only applies when selling the ore itself, not when used in crafting. Selling Coinite directly gives guaranteed massive profits, while crafting is risky and provides less value.
You need 1 Coinite per trip to pay the Ferry Operator. I recommend keeping 5-10 Coinite in your inventory for travel flexibility while selling the rest for profit.
Yes! Stack luck bonuses from multiple sources: Luck Potions from Maria’s Shop, Dedicated Player achievement (8-40% luck based on playtime), Miner Shard runes with Luck trait, races with luck buffs, and Luck Totems (25% temporary boost). These can nearly double your drop rate.
Besides Coinite, Crimson Depths drops several other legendary and divine rarity ores including Evil Eye, Stolen Heart (ultra-rare), and various red crystal ores. This makes the area valuable even when you’re not finding Coinite.
This varies wildly based on luck (both game RNG and your boosted stats). With maximum luck optimizations, some players report getting 1-3 Coinite per hour of focused farming. Without luck boosts, you might go several hours between drops. Patience and optimization are key.
Ready to take your Coinite farming to the next level? Here are some advanced strategies I’ve developed:
Multi-Account Strategy (If Allowed): If you have multiple accounts or play with friends, coordinate to farm different sections of Crimson Depths simultaneously. This maximizes total ore attempts across the entire cave system.
Time Your Sessions: Server resets and update times often result in fewer players online. Farming during off-peak hours means less competition for Heart of the Island Stone and Large Red Crystals.
Track Your Statistics: Keep a farming log of how many crystals you mine and how many Coinite you find. This helps you identify which crystal type and which positions give you the best results, and lets you calculate your actual drop rate with your specific luck bonuses.
Combine with Other Grinds: Since you’re already in Crimson Depths, use the opportunity to complete other objectives like collecting ores for quest requirements, farming enemy drops, or gathering materials for crafting. This makes the time spent more efficient overall.
Join The Forge Community: Connect with other players through the official Discord server or Reddit community. Players often share server information when they find good Coinite spawns or when the cave is less crowded. Some even organize farming parties.
Invest in Premium Boosts: If you’re serious about Coinite farming and don’t mind spending Robux, premium luck totems and gamepass boosts can significantly accelerate your profits. Calculate whether the Robux investment pays for itself based on your farming rate.
Perfect Your Multi-Mining Angles: Spend time finding the exact positions where you can hit 2-3 crystals per swing. Mark these spots mentally or with visual references in the cave. Muscle memory for these positions dramatically improves your ore-per-hour rate.
After hundreds of hours farming Coinite and helping countless players optimize their strategies, my verdict is crystal clear: yes, Coinite farming is absolutely worth your time if you’re at the endgame stage and need massive amounts of gold.
The 15x sell multiplier is simply unmatched by any other ore in the game. Sure, the 1/15,151 drop rate is brutal, and yes, you’ll need to invest time in unlocking Raven Cave and maxing your luck stats. But once you’re set up properly, Coinite becomes one of the most efficient gold-per-hour activities in The Forge.
Here’s my recommended approach: Don’t treat Coinite as your sole focus. Instead, integrate it into your regular Forge gameplay loop. When you need gold for a major purchase like the Heavenly Pickaxe or expensive crafting materials, dedicate a focused farming session to Coinite with all luck boosts active. The rest of the time, collect Coinite naturally while completing quests, exploring caves, or farming other ores.
Remember, The Forge is ultimately about enjoying the journey. Coinite farming can be meditative and satisfying, especially when you finally see that golden coin drop and hear the legendary ore chime. The rush of excitement never gets old, even after your tenth or twentieth Coinite.
Keep your luck stats maximized, use the right pickaxe, position yourself for multi-mining, and stay persistent. Before you know it, you’ll have more gold than you ever imagined possible, and access to every endgame activity the game has to offer.
Now get out there and start mining—those red crystals aren’t going to break themselves! May the RNG gods smile upon your farming sessions, and I’ll see you in Crimson Depths.
