Ancient Coins are Sea of Bounty Thieves, and you usually have to hand over your hard-earned loot in the real world to get your hands on it. There is a way to earn them in-game, however. If you can locate Ancient Skeletons, they can drop Ancient Coins when they die.
How to get old coins for free
To get ancient coins for free, you need to locate ancient skeletons. These skeletons have blue and gold bones and have a large bag of coins on their backs. The game also offers sound cues for their appearance. These chaps have a unique chilling melody, accompanied by the sound of the coins falling to the floor.
You only have 10 seconds to kill them, and when you get close they try to run away. Fortunately, they don't have much health, but if you don't kill them in time, they'll sink into the dirt and disappear.
You can find ancient skeletons by visiting the islands in adventure mode or in the arena. The player acts as a potential spawn point, with skeletons spawning near you.
When you kill an Ancient Skeleton you are awarded Ancient Coins, although you can only know the number by looking at the Pirate Emporium screen in your main menu. There is also no known mechanism to influence spawns, and Ancient Skeletons are a fairly rare spawn in the game. To increase your chances, spend a lot of time on the islands.
You can also buy ancient coins for real money from the in-game store.
