Power Coins

The Power Coins were magical golden coins which enabled the Power Rangers to morph. The Coins are attached to the Power Mopher through electro-magnets. After attaching, the Coins are locked in place by small, spring-loaded tabs, hidden inside the Coin. When taken out, the Coins become Power Crystals. The holder places his thumb and index fingers on the edge of the Coin, heads facing out. The individual then elongates the crystal down to a point.

The Rangers then activates it by shouting "Two-One-Power Up", and inserts it into a slot on the helm of his/her Zord. The coins are also used to emit extreme charges and to transfer power to new rangers. The original coins were forged by Ninjor, but Zordon and Alpha 5 created the White Ranger coin. It should also be noted that the Dragon Coin of the Green Power Ranger did not possess a strong link to the Morphing Grid as the other five did, which is how Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd were able to drain its powers. In season 3 the rangers lost their power and traveled to the Temple of Power and gained assistance from Ninjor. Ninjor gave them new power coins with new animals: The Falcon, the Frog, the Crane, the Wolf, the Bear, and the Ape. Unfortunately these power coins were also destroyed later by Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd. The Rangers gain new power from the Zeo Crystal and became the Zeo Rangers. Afterward the coins are not seen again, with the exception of the Mastodon, Tyrannosaurus , Dragonzord and White Tiger coins,(although the Dragonzord and White Tiger coins were only seen in Tommy's comatose state. ) It was not explained how Adam or Jason were able to use their powers again in Always A Chance and Forever Red respectively.
