| − | Lucky Coin's {{Card|Silver}} gaining can be somewhat influential on the overall direction of the game. Generally, it provides a useful source of early [[payload]] and is therefore typically worth playing at least on your first couple of shuffles; subsequently, its value and impact often become more dependent on the type of deck you're aiming to construct. In cases where an [[engine]] is best and strong [[Action]]-based payload is available, gaining too many {{Card|Silver|Silvers}} (especially early in the game) is likely to be undesirable, as they will impede your efforts to achieve [[deck control]] without providing sufficient payoff. You may therefore consider not playing Lucky Coin on some turns, particularly if you can generate the amount of {{Cost}} you need in any case. If you will never want extra {{Card|Silver|Silvers}}, e.g. because the [[draw]] is weak and alternative forms of payload are very strong, you may consider trashing Lucky Coin, especially if a good [[trash-for-benefit]] effect is available. However, the ability to ramp up payload easily or gain extra fodder for effects like {{Card|Recruiter}} can be very useful once you have added some draw, and there are other scenarios in which the best course of action is to flood your deck with {{Card|Silver}} by playing Lucky Coin as often as possible. Most frequently, this is simply because you are adopting a [[money strategy]]: because it provides immediate access to a way to increase your [[money density]] rapidly, Lucky Coin is a strong enabler of such strategies (for which {{card|Fool}} itself can also provide helpful support) and can push you in that direction in [[Kingdom]]s where this would otherwise be a marginal decision. More specifically, Lucky Coin is particularly notable in money strategies where the {{Card|Silver|Silvers}} are also relevant in scoring {{VP}}, e.g. with {{Card|Feodum}}.
