This level is a bit trickier than most in terms of even finding all of the coins. There's the coin under the Koopa boat at the very end, there's the fact that you can defeat the green topmen to get additional coins, the ? block in this level is somewhat well hidden and the timer to get all 10 coins from the block is really tight, and of course, there are cannonballs to get coins from.
Because of how fast the cannons shoot in this level, you can't get the full 3 coin potential from any of the four cannons unless you use Co-Star mode.

It was previously thought that you could only get 6 coins from these cannons without Co-Star mode, but Dendonodon (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCf1oif9Gkk3U7a-fNsXe93Q) discovered that jumping on the cannonballs causes them to stay active just a bit longer, and in some cases, this amount of extra time is enough to spawn in another cannonball that has a coin in store! This stalling trick boosted the coins gotten from these cannons from 6 to 8 without Co-Star.
