(34 coins are found in Tiny Island, 112 coins are found in Huge Island, and an additional 46 coins are found in Wiggler's cave, a part of Huge Island.) It's up to you what section you want to do first, although I usually save the 10 yellow coins you get from Wiggler's room until the end. You go into the Wiggler battle with 181 coins, and then you can just collect the final coins and then Wiggler's star. If you don't want to do it like that, you can get the coins by hanging underneath them on the wire grid, but it'll take you longer.

I recommend you start with the area that gives you the most trouble. You can quickly finish off 33 of 34 coins from Tiny Island, but you can't get the 34th, as it is the infamous "impossible" coin. The impossible coin is located in the ground, to the left of the hole where the small metal balls roll out of. For several pictures of the impossible coin, look here. Otherwise, Tiny Island should be easy. Perhaps the most trouble you will find are the micro-goombas. Remember, there are 10 of them and you must get all 10 of their coins for a perfect score. Practice jumping on them precisely, because if you miss, they could hit you and disappear. You will not get hurt, but now you can't get their coin. Also, they sometimes walk off the edges and kill themselves. However, you can easily bring them back if they walk off the edge (unless it falls into water and dies). All you have to do is jump into the pipe to take you to Huge Island, then warp back. Any micro-goombas that weren't killed, but jumped off the edge, will be back.

Giant Island is pretty big and has lots of coins and enemies. With 112 possible coins available without even going into Wiggler's cave, you could actually collect your 100-coin star without ever having to leave this island. However, there's one very, very important trick that you need to know. You must kill all the giant goombas with a butt-stomp. If you simply jump on them, you'll only get a single coin. But with a butt-stomp, you'll get a blue coin, and with 11 giant goombas, you would be cheating yourself out of 44 coins if you didn't butt-stomp them. I recommend doing a side-flip over them, then smashing them. If you just jump normally and butt-stomp, they will sometimes do a little jump when they see you, and could will accidentally bump into you before you smash them.

Other enemies that are found in Giant Island include a chuckya, a lakitu, a koopa troopa, 5 giant piranhas, and 3 fly guys. Track them down and kill them, making sure that their coins will land in an acceptable place, if they're close to the edge. You might have trouble with the fly guy by the cliff where the metal balls are rolling on, since you have only a little room where the coins can land. (You might want to get him near the beginning.) Other then that, the coins are straight-forward, also remember not to smash down either post before you run around them! You can get to the post on the island by jumping from above, or using the cannon.
