Star 11 - Vanish Cap Red Coins - Castle Secret Stars

Find all 8 Red Coins in the Vanish Cap stage in Super Mario 64 to unlock Star 11. Detailed locations for each coin, including the giant slide and teeter-tot platform.

This star is more difficult. To get it, go to the Vanish Cap stage. If you do not know where the Vanish Cap stage is, refer to the Vanish Cap Course section of this walkthrough. Once you get to the Vanish Cap stage, you will have to collect all of the 8 red coins within the stage. As soon as you grab all 8 red coins, the star will appear inside a screened off area at the end of the level. To get into the screened off area, you will have to grab a Vanish Cap, then you will be able to go straight through the screen.

Here is a checklist of the locations of all 8 red coins:

1. Coin 1 - At the beginning of the level there is a giant slide. The first red coin is located on one of the pillars sticking out of the giant slide, at the top left.
2. Coin 2 - At the beginning of the level there is a giant slide. The second of the eight red coins is located on top of the second highest pillar, which is in the center of the slide.
3. Coin 3 - At the beginning of the level there is a giant slide. The third of the eight red coins is located on the pillar located in the bottom center.
4. Coin 4 - If you look to the right hand side of the pillar that held red Coin #3, you will see another platform with another red coin on it. This is the coin that you are looking for.
