A '''Mini medal''' is an item hidden throughout many {{Main Series}} games. They are often found in chests of drawers, [[treasure chest]]s, and other searchable locations. Collected Mini medals can be exchanged for various prizes in the game in which they are found.
A '''mini medal''' is an item hidden throughout many {{Main Series}} games. They are often found in chests of drawers, [[treasure chest]]s, and other searchable locations. Collected mini medals can be exchanged for various prizes in the game in which they are found, usually with the [[Medal King]] or a similar monarch-themed character.
 
Mini medals first appeared in {{Dragon Quest IV}}, where 32 mini medals could be found and exchanged at [[Minikin's Dominion]]. Since then, mini medals appear in every mainline {{Main Series}} game, and several spin-offs, with mini medals being retroactively added in the remakes of the series' first three entries. Mini medals usually appear in finite quantities in most games, but are sometimes also obtainable as dropped items from monsters. Depending on a game, receiving all items from a mini medal exchange requires all mini medals in the game, whilst in others, the quantity of mini medals available is greater than that required for all items.
