Are there names like ワンコイン for the other coins?


So ワンコイン refers to a 500円 coin, but is there other names for the other coins?

Also in conversation does ワンコイン refer to any specific currency or only to 500
yen (as in the sense of being a default).




I'm not sure how SE works and why there are only comments with answers and no
actual answers...

However, ワンコイン, as mentioned by Dave and others in the comments, is not a term
for any particular coin, but just a sales practice by any shop. Whenever they
sell items where you can pay using just one coin, then it's a sales point
they'll put on signs.

It could apply to any of the coins. So if a shop had everything for 100 yen,
or 10 yen, 5 yen, or 1 yen, then they could say ワンコイン.

I have never heard the term used in conversation, at least not in reference to
currency. It would only be used when talking about a shop or sale.
