Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake: All Mini Medals Locations

by Adam Vitale and Bryan Vitale on 14 November, 2024

Mini Medals have become a staple collectible for the Dragon Quest Series and they have even been in previous versions of Dragon Quest III. For Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, the medals return once again. There are 110 Mini Medals to find in total. Turning in medals is a good way to earn new gear and accessories, including a couple that give rewards you can only get in this way. 

Mini Medals can be found in treasure chests, pots, cabinets and drawers, and sometimes even completely hidden. For what it's worth, many mini medals are in different spots compared to older versions of Dragon Quest III.

We'll list here where to find each Mini Medal, how to pick up rewards for finding them, and what rewards can be earned for each Mini Medal found.

Trying to track down all friendly monsters or all Secret Spots in addition to Mini Medals? We have you covered!

Where do you turn in Mini Medals in Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake?

Mini medals can be turned in at the Mini Medal Manor below the main part of Aliahan. Simply head down the well and follow the path to turn in new medals whenever you are in town.

Dragon Quest III HD-2D: All Mini Medal Locations

Mini Medals are not numbered in-game, we've just numbered them here in an order players could be expected to find each medal. The order also matches that found in our step-by-step guide. But if you just need some assistance finding a specific medal, hopefully the location details and screenshots here help you find each and every one.

TIP: A Thief's Nose for Treasure ability can be used to verify that there are no items left to find in any given location. This ability will list out the number of remaining items to find on the current map. The Thief spell Snoop can help locate items on the current map by causing a sparkly glow where the items can be found. There is no way to search for just Mini Medals, however.
