Exploring Dynasty Warriors: Origins' overworld yields several benefits for future battles. While Pyroxene farming creates gems, you'll frequently discover Old Coins with initially unclear uses early in your campaign.

Old Coins remain unusable during Chapter 1 - simply progress through the main story. Upon reaching Chapter 2, complete these key battles:
- Suppression of You Province
- Suppression of Jing Province
- Suppression of Liang Province
After finishing these missions in Ji city, you'll meet scholar Sima Hui. Following dialogue and an errand for the Innkeeper, the Shui Jing Retreat appears near Ji. Here you can exchange Old Coins for rewards while reviewing bonds and past interactions.
Rewards unlock at specific coin thresholds - always redeem them during visits:

With 500 discoverable coins, avoid early farming attempts - collection methods expand naturally through gameplay:
- Overworld discoveries
- Bond interactions with companions/officers
- Inn letters after story events
- Regional Peace rewards at Waypoints
Unlike Pyroxene, Old Coin icons appear small and proximity-triggered in the overworld. The valuable rewards justify organic collection while progressing through the campaign.
