After the captain is presented with the 80th mini medal, he gives the player a Dragon robe and the Capn's Curtsy party trick. Afterwards, the player can trade in any number of mini medals for whichever prize they choose, similar to {{V}}.
In the DS version it isn't possible to obtain the Gringham Whip until [[Dragon Quest IV Chapter 6|Chapter 6]] as the [[Pioneer Town]] can't be completed until that Chapter. The [[Cell phone]] version of the game accelerates the completion of the town, thus allowing all prizes to be obtained before ending the main game/[[Dragon Quest IV Chapter 5|Chapter 5]]

===''[[Dragon Quest IX]]''===
==={{DQStars}}===
[[Captain Max Meddlin]] collects mini medals in ''[[Dragon Quest IX]]''. He can be found in the north east corner of [[Dourbridge]]. Prizes are awarded after giving the captain a certain number of mini medals.  
Only found in the Japanese version of the game, they can be obtained by doing the daily quest, randomly by completing quests, and as event rewards. There are two reward lists, one that is permanent and another that changes every few months. In both cases, players can obtain rare materials and cosmetic equipment, such as the outfit of the hero of {{Dragon Quest Swords}}. One of the most important mini medal reward is the scroll that unlocks the Brave Knight vocation, a very powerful offensive vocation.
 
There are also ''dark medals'' and ''super dark medals'', obtained by defeating Fiend-difficulty and Archfiend-difficuly foes. Both of these types of medal allows the players to obtain rare materials and exclusive cosmetic.
 
==={{DQTact}}===
Mini medals can be earned by meeting certain requeriments when finishing quests or from breaking pots and opening chests in quests. Mini medals can be given to [[King Maximog]] in exchange for new units, rare materials, and equipment.

There are two reward lists, one that is permanent and another that changes every few months. In both cases, players can obtain rare materials and cosmetic equipment, such as the outfit of the hero of Dragon Quest Swords. One of the most important mini medal reward is the scroll that unlocks the Brave Knight vocation, a very powerful offensive vocation.
