The flavor text of all these coins are at least double as funny/interesting if you know who the persons are who threw them into the fountain.

Aegwynn's coin for example. She is Medivh's mother and defeated an incarnation of Sargeras in the Storm Peaks. Currently she lives in Theramore. (see: Warcraft Novel "Cycle of Hatred", WarCraft Comic about Lo'gosh/Varian Wrynn)

Kommentar von Novawolf

FUN FACT =D

Antonidas' wish is a direct reference to St. Francis of Assisi's quote:

"God grant me the courage to change that which I can, the serenity to accept that which I cannot, and the wisdom to know the difference."

The Blood Elves almost have it right, too.

Is the name of this achievement a reference to "Summer in the City"?

"Hot town, summer in the city, dressed so fine and lookin' so pretty...

Hot town, lookin for a kitty, gonna check in every corner of the city...

Kommentar von Sulticune

Nobody has said where the fountain actually is... It's in The Eventide zone, in the south of Dalaran. Right near the Grand Master Fishing Trainer.

Kommentar von Korvboll

If you're using loot filter when fishing like me, you might want to add this to automatically delete all silver coins as soon as you get them.

#(.*)Silver Coin$

I guess you still get the achievement for fishing them up, as the add-on doesn't instant delete it, but I haven't tried that.

Anyhow, when you already have all the silver coins for the achievement I don't see why you would want to fill you bags with them, so I just auto-delete them :)

The fountain is at 52,65. You must have 430 in fishing or better to fish there.

Kommentar von DaDawg

I do find it most interesting that a "Silver" coin could be only worth 62c.

Kommentar von ArgentSun

These coins touch a few interesting Lore strings. I've tried to explain all of them, as well as I can in a few lines.

Aegwynns Silbermünze - Aegwynn, Medivh's mother was a fairly headstrong Guardian of Tirisfal. She was in constant disagreement with the other members of the Order, thinking that their ways of dealing with the problems (the demonic menace in particular) were based more on tradition than efficiency - hence her frustration with the mages.
Allerias Silbermünze - Alleria Windrunner was the eldest of the three Windrunner sisters - the other being Sylvanas and Vereesa. All three of them played a major role during the Second War and other important events. Ironically Sylvanas Windrunner did make the name known, but for entirely different reasons...
Antonidas Silbermünze - Antonidas was the leader of Kirin Tor before he was killed by the Scourge. He was regarded as one of the wisest men of Azeroth, hence the quote from Serenity Prayer.
Arkanist Doans Silbermünze - Arcanist Doan, found as a boss in the Scarlet Monastery's Library. Nothing special is known about him, but he seems to either have a crush on Briggite Abbendis, the current High General of the Scarlet ~~Crusade~~ Onslaught; or Doan is just sad, because Briggite's father, High General Abbendis didn't notice him.
Fandral Hirschhaupts Silbermünze - Fandral Staghelm is one of the leading druids of the Cenarion Circle. His coin is a reference to the War of the Shifting Sands, where Fandral's beloved son Valstann Staghelm was slain in front of his father's eyes - event that left the Archdruid grieving for life.
Hochtüftler Mekkadrills Silbermünze - the coin is reference to High Tinker Mekkatorque's infamous inventing skills.
Khadgars Silbermünze - Turalyon (human, paladin) and Alleria (high elven ranger) were Khadgar's best friends, who became separate from him when Kadgar sealed the Dark Portal.
König Anasterian Sonnenwanderers Silbermünze - Anasterian Sunstrider was the father of Kael'thas and king of the High Elves before Arthas and the Scourge invaded Quel'thalas. The coin is simply a sign of hope that Kael'thas will be a good leader... Ironically, he does lead his people well, but in an entirely wrong direction (to demonic hunger, and not noble glory).
König Terenas Menethils Silbermünze - Terenas Menethil II, father of Arthas Menethil. Yet another ironic wish - as seen in the WotLK Cinematic, Arthas acts in behalf of his people - the Scourge.
König Varian Wrynns Silbermünze - King Varian Wrynn is current king of Stormwind. The coin most likely refers to the time when he was still a child, soon after Gul'dan's Horde razed Stormwind. Varian fled north with Anduin Lothar, where they met Khadgar - presumably in Dalaran. This is where and when the young Varian Wrynn might have made his wish.
Maiev Schattensangs Silbermünze - Maiev Shadowsong was Illidan's jailor for some 10,000 years. After he was free, Maiev started a long hunt for him, and became really obsessed with it.
Medivhs Silbermünze - It has been pointed out that the coin reads "You sense the ringing of three tones in your head, the third barely audible under the others' din." As Isfreak points out, it may have something to do with the "three destinies" Medivh has - the first is what his mother planned - to be the greatest of all the Guardians of Tirisfal. The second is Sargeras's, to be used as a corrupted weapon. The third is Medivh's own - to break free of those destinies. As a supporting argument, the third tone (or third destiny, Medivh's own) being barely audible may be a reference to how little control Medivh had over his own life.
Muradin Bronzebarts Silbermünze - Muradin Bronzebeard led a dwarven expedition in Northrend, to battle the Scourge (before Arthas became the Lich King). The Holy Light didn't protect them very well, seeing how all of them were slaughtered, and Muradin was the only survivor - severely wounded and with amnesia.
Prinz Magni Bronzebarts Silbermünze - Magni's father was Madoran Bronzebeard, Brann and Muradin - his younger brothers. The coin implies that Magni didn't believe he would make a good king, but knowing the he is the current king of Ironforge, it seems that he's doing his job just fine.
Silbermünze eines Bauern - Just a normal pun reference to how forgetful peasants (and any other kind of working unit) are in (World of) Warcraft.

I hope that lifts some of the mysteries.

Kommentar von ryokuga

I assume you guys have heard the male Blood elf /silly jokes, 1 of them was a referral to the Serenity Prayers, although its the arcane addict version >D

"Grant me the strength to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to ...ARGH! Just give me the damn magic before I kill somebody!"

Goes something like that...I think...

Kommentar von Zazkia

Each of the coin is a random drop from fishing in the Eventide Fountain, so you will have caught some coins many times before you catch the first of another.

I.e. the chance of getting a specific coin does not increase when you have caught most of the others already.

Edit:
I ran a simulation of catching the coins. Assuming each silver coin has a chance of 0.5% to be caught when fishing in the fountain, these are the results:
Average #casts to catch 1 coins: 13.2935
Average #casts to catch 2 coins: 27.5204
Average #casts to catch 3 coins: 43.1325
Average #casts to catch 4 coins: 59.783
Average #casts to catch 5 coins: 77.5769
Average #casts to catch 6 coins: 97.4654
Average #casts to catch 7 coins: 119.6284
Average #casts to catch 8 coins: 144.9301
Average #casts to catch 9 coins: 173.503
Average #casts to catch 10 coins: 206.9016
Average #casts to catch 11 coins: 247.3078
Average #casts to catch 12 coins: 297.5623
Average #casts to catch 13 coins: 365.4619
Average #casts to catch 14 coins: 465.0332
Average #casts to catch 15 coins: 664.7915

As you can see, getting those last coins gets progressively harder.

Does this achievement require any prereqs like doing the copper one or throwing the copper coins in to fish up silver coins?

How much fishing do you need to not the message "Your fish to away" or atleast not to get it always.

I've just gained this achivment, attempting to do all three in one day, so you can think how long I've been on as I started this morning..... (Time now 23:00)

Fountain Goldfish - 344
Bent Fish Hook - 27
Sewer Carp - 12
Magic Eater - 3
Copper Coin - 70
Silver Coin 47
Gold Coin - 21

Other junk - 891....

Total 1415 casts.

Copper and Gold still to go.

Good luck to all those out there.

Kommentar von Chilcoot

Took me 410 casts at 560 fishing, using gold coins as best I could to keep the buff up.

Kommentar von RageTreb

PLEASE NOTE: Throwing a gold coin into the Dalaran fountain will increase your chances of fishing up further coins for a short time. Do not make the same mistake I did and assume throwing them in is just a silly thing you can do for fun like throwing a paper zeppelin at another player. Blizzard should have really said more than "Use: Throw back into Dalaran fountain" on the gold coins. For someone like me who wanted to save the coins, it seemingly gives us no incentive to get rid of them

If you're curious, it can take upwards of 5 hours to fish up all the coins you need if you don't use the gold coin buff. Yes, I speak from experience. There should really be an achievement for not using any gold coins to get all the coins. >_>

If anyone reading this could upvote this comment that would be great. Don't let others suffer the way I did!

Kommentar von 858305

so i did this in about 1 1/2 hours. now stack any gold coins y ou have and toss them in for the buff one at a time. i still haven't completed the silver and gold ones but i am about 6 coins away. No lures just straight grinding

Kommentar von idahocaligirl

As someone else mentioned, throwing gold coins back in offers the advantage of a 2 minute buff that increases your odds of fishing coins from the fountain. What I didn't see mentioned is the buff does not stack, so throwing 2 coins in will not give you 4 minutes. Best bet is to throw one gold coin in at a time, wait for the buff to end, and throw the next. I've had a constant buff for the last hour doing this, with gold coins still left in my bags.

Maybe an obvious tip, but since I was unsure enough to need to test 2 coins at once, I'm sure someone will benefit from this
