Gold Diamonds,[1] also known as Big Yellow Jewels,[2] are items in Luigi's Mansion and its remake. They are significantly larger than Blue Diamonds and Red Diamonds. Each Gold Diamond is worth 20,000,000G, which is the highest value of any collectible in the game. Only two Gold Diamonds can be found in the mansion and Hidden Mansion. One of the Gold Diamonds is obtained after Luigi waters a plant three times in the Boneyard, specifically if he does so before the battle with Bogmire, after the battle, and lastly after defeating Boolossus for the flower to bloom, revealing the diamond and several other treasures. The only other Gold Diamond is obtained after Luigi captures all 50 Boos. If Luigi captures the final Boo and the player saves the game, the Gold Diamond's location is saved as being on the ground, so if the player does not save the game again, the Gold Diamond is lost permanently if either the game is turned off or the player receives a Game Over.
