GW2 Coin Collector Prospect Valley Achievement Guide for Dry Drop. Videoguide coming soon.
Video
Note that due to the vertically and complex nature of the map, it isreally hard to describe accurately the location of each Lost Coinwithout cluttering the page with tons of pictures. Therefore, it isbetter to follow along with the video, the route has being semioptimized to reduce backtracking.
Note: The numbering system was changed from the previous version dueto route optimization. If you were using the old map/numbering system,you can find the old map here to compareto the new map to get the new numbering system.

#19 is not clear to me
Dulfy
From #18’s location, you will see a ledge with another devoureron it. If you go on that ledge, you will see a gap and thenanother ledge with the #19 coin on it.
It is kind of hard to describe this whole map in just words andpictures since there is no much vertically and nooks and cranks.If you still can’t figure out wait a bit for a video guide.
Tyler
Thanks turns out my trouble was that I didn’t find #18 wheni thought i did, which is prereq. for #19. THANKS DULFY (:
Sylar\^
need a vid real quick, #19 is like wttf x.x argh my head
Dulfy
Video is rendering + uploading so it will be an hr or two.Beware that I have changed the numbering after I optimized theroute a bit so hopefully it isn’t too confusing.

I finally managed to get them yesterday, but thanks for allyour hard work!
Meh Lindi
Good guide. Also a map for possible locations of buried lock chestswould be nice. 😉

Dulfy, Dulfy… You rock!
katreyn
Ugh is it possible this achievement can get bugged? I did a largemajority before you had a guide up. Went back to look for theobscure ones (jp ones, well, the one hidden behind the vines). Thenonly needed one left. Been back through everything step by step byvideo twice and no clue what I am missing. >.< Stuck at 29/30.Guess next time I'll wait for a guide first. lol
Cronos Dage
Inquest one?
katreyn
Yeah definitely have that one, went back to check too. Gonnamake another round again tonight just to make sure I guess.
Bhelliom

Thanks for the map as an additional help to Dulfy’s info. I had3 left and used your map to get two and yours and Dulfy’s to get#16 which was the last. Kudos on giving us good info. You mightknow where these are but some are a challenge to get to. I gotmost on my own and was down to 5 when I started using these mapsand guides. Very happy I got this achieve. Thanks to you both.

Now that there are vines everywhere, I can’t get #11 – I always hitthe vine on first jump and fall down.

After trying countless times a kind soul made this guide for me,and it helped me finally get the coin:https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/5qprt5/could_someone_help_how_to_reach_this_lost_coin_in/(Disqus doesn’t let me link to the specific comment, scroll downuntil ShortnCurly’s comments.)

Peach
Nevermind I manage to get through after half an hour of trialand error >_<
Trystiana

I used the 2 big thorny branches that are coming out ofthe building underneath the platform. Took me a while toget into the right position but I somehow managed it.Good luck!
Stephan

John Kucing
Anyone knows where is the Lost coin #20 in the dulfy list? I justneed this one for finishing that achievement. :-/
Redmedios
coin #20 is now #25 in dulfy guide.\you can also check the conversion table here :https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/763/updated-dt-coin-sw-badge-locations
Xiper
If any of you were just as confused as I was in the beginning, Dulfyhas ordered the coins in order of route optimization — meaning coin#23 is the coin closest to #22 (after getting coin #22), and doesNOT correspond to the actual coin number in the achievement.
AriaFiresong
Well, more because GW2 numbered their coins long after theachievements and relevant guides came out.
AriaFiresong
Since following the forum link seems to break,https://imgur.com/bE8gzLt for the direct conversion table.
