The coins come from a slightly larger area than just immediately around the sign. If you see sparkles in the vicinity, that's indicating there's coins. It was fairly easy to get all 60 once I noticed that, instead of the 2-3 from using the magnet near the sign.

It is helpful if you run in a circle around the sign and spam the magnet since the coins are in the general area and not just directly beneath the sign. Currently on the alpha it seems that the coins are shared across players, so if somebody has just gotten coins from a spot you may not be able to, until they respawn.

Description

My last time in Tol Barad I had to leave in a big hurry, but I grabbed a few gadgets on the way out. This device is one of my favorites, so don't break it! It'll suck the treasure right out of the mud. It may make you tingle some, that's just the radiation. Find lost coins using the metal collector near the signs I've placed.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Anchors Aweigh Too MuchStormsong Valley · Level 30-60

    I got a little deal on the side, selling used ship parts to Addington Shipyards. While you're out looking for the treasure, see what sort of useful parts you can salvage from the mud: anchors, cannons, whatever! We'll sell them to Addington and cut you in for a share of the profits.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Bomb Beats RockStormsong Valley · Level 30-60

    I stole an old treasure map off an Irontide pirate. The map marks several caves on it with circles. The caves are blocked by boulders, but now that you're here, we're going to open them up. You get to do all the dangerous stuff, plant explosives, kill things, and cave exploring. I'll supervise.
