How to get the Lucky Jewel in Super Mario RPG

By Jebb Fabian

The Lucky Jewel can be purchased for 100 gold coins from the Treasure Hunting Toad at the Moleville item shop.

It is a consumable item that grants you the Lucky Status and the effects are the same as the boosts you get from Lucky Flower.

The lucky jewel has around 10 charges. Once you use them up, The Lucky Jewel disappears from the game. This item can only be purchased once which means that You won’t be able to get more after the item disappears from your inventory.

Before the item becomes available for you to purchase, there are a few prerequisites to complete first.

You must have access to Moleville.
Speak with the Treasure hunting toad inside the mines.
Defeat Punchinello and get the 3rd Star piece.

For a guide on how to unlock the prerequisites, please refer to the Moleville Walkthrough in Super Mario Rpg.
