The Fortnite Season 5 week 5 challenges are now available, and there’s an heavy emphasis on gnomes. While gnomes in reality are mostly tacky decorations or the stars of horrid movies such as Sherlock Gnomes, in Epic Games’ battle royale they need to be found for challenges. But, away from the bevy of gnome challenges, there is one that asks players to find a buried blue coin in Retail Row. This has resulted in people asking where is the buried blue coin in Fortnite at Retail Row, and here you’ll discover how to dig up the XP coin.

Aside from the challenge which this guide focuses on, other week 5 challenges task players with digging up and burying gnomes, and there’s also one that asks battle royale participants to collect Gnomes in Holly Hedges.

But, away from the emphasis on gnomes, below you’ll discover where to find and how to dig up the buried blue coin in Fortnite at Retail Row.

Where is the buried blue coin in Fortnite?

The buried blue coin can be found in Fortnite at Retail Row.

As for where you’ll exactly find the buried blue coin at Retail Row, you’ll find it at a Fortnite house which is painted yellow.

Travel to this yellow house and you’ll find a basketball hoop. And, next to this basketball hoop, you’ll also find a skinny tree.

But, most importantly, you’ll find a pile of leaves besides the tree, and you should notice that it’s slightly glowing blue.
