There are several money emojis πΈπ΅π΄πΆπ·π°, but no Coin. Medals π π₯π₯π₯π donβt count, but look similar if the ribbon was removed. Common denominations are 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50. Some issuers also have a 25 denomination, most notably for the US dollar. Before the 19th century, less systematic denominations were the norm, including vulgar fractions of the base currency like 1/3.

Coins, especially of the smallest denomination are sometimes considered lucky charms (e.g. like horseshoes #218).
Prior art
Japanese carrier E-Mobile / eAccess had a coin emoji that (like the HIT emoji ) was not considered for inclusion in Unicode for some reason. https://t.co/nW2A5zTtSr
Screenshot taken from an archived copy of http://emobile.jp/service/pdf/mail_change_201109.pdf (last page). E-Mobile (or “EMOBILE”) was the cell phone brand of E-Access (or “e·Access_”), was acquired by Softbank in 2013 and got merged in 2014 with Willcom into the Yahoo-themed Y!-Mobile brand. Its emojis are a superset of the original NTT Docomo i-mode emojis because as a data service provider they cooperated with NTT to provide voice services. (Or so I assume.)
