“Score over 5000 points for a chance to win the Rareware Coin, but I know a score like that is way out of your league, sonny.”
—Professor Cranky Kong , Donkey Kong 64

The Rareware Coin is a key item in Donkey Kong 64 . It is a silver coin with the Rare logo. The Rareware Coin can be obtained by earning at least 5,000 points from playing Jetpac in Cranky's Lab, then collecting the Rareware Coin that appears within the Jetpac game as a result. The player is required to have both the Rareware Coin and the Nintendo Coin to open a door in Hideout Helm where the final Boss Key for K. Lumsy's cage is found.

A different coin displaying the Rare logo appears in Diddy Kong Racing DS .
