==Trivia==
*According to Olimar in his notes, he notes that the treasure is actually made out of an unknown metal and compares it to a ''"valuable metal with a stunning sheen that has a similar effect"'', which is implied to be gold. As the treasure itself is evidently a golden dollar, this would suggest that the coin itself is made out of an alloy that resembles gold, such as brass.
*This treasure weighs the same as the [[Mirrored Element]], despite gold weighing more than silver.
