There are two different ways that you can obtain an Ancient Coin, and both of them require a visit to Jarilo-VI.

1. Break Objects on Jarilo-VI
   • Breaking objects is fairly simple. Anytime you are walking through the different areas of the planet, and you come across an object that appears to have a blue target on it, that means it is a breakable object.
   • Once you find a breakable object, use the button corresponding to your basic attack to break the object and obtain its contents.
2. Investigate Trash Cans littered throughout Jarilo-VI
   • Finding trash cans can be a bit difficult in Jarilo-VI unless you’re in an area like the Administrative District
   • Once you locate a trash can walk up to it and investigate it. You will often find notes or letters, and sometimes even nothing. However, there is a small chance for you to obtain Ancient Coins in the process.

How to Use Ancient Coins in Honkai Star Rail

Ancient Coins are no longer used as a form of currency within the game, so there isn’t much that can be done with them. However, you can earn 5 Stellar Jades by completing achievements that involve collecting Ancient Coins. More specifically, the Twinkly, Winkly achievement within the Memories We Share category.

Alternatively, an Ancient Coin is considered a quest item, which means there is a good chance it will be used later in the game’s storyline. So, it’s a great idea to at least pick up a few of them, just in case.
