| Objectives | |
|---|---|
| 1 | Speak with the Irondale vendor. Talk to Padraic Haggarty at his shop west of the Irondale Floo Flame fast travel point. |
| 2 | Return to the scene in Irondale at night. Via the map, wait in the area until nighttime. The rest of the quest can only take place at night. |
| 3 |  Use Revelio at the shop to reveal a pile of gold headed west out of Irondale. |
| 4 |  Follow the trail of coins. Follow the trail of coins, collecting them on the way and using Revelio to highlight them when you lose track of them. ▶ How to find and follow the trail of coins |
| 5 |  The thief is a Niffler beast. You can capture it with the nab-sack. Since it's already sleeping, best to sneak up on it without waking it up. |
| 5a | Make sure to also get the Haggarty Family Heirloom, located above the mouth of the den. You can return it to Padraic for Gold. |
| 6 | Return to Padraic Haggarty. Fast travel back to Irondale and speak to Padraic to complete the quest. |
The trail of coins will lead you west to a Loyalist camp. This is not the final location, as the trail continues past the camp and further west through the jagged cliffside. Best to sneak past the enemies at the camp (and avoid attacking them) if you're collecting the coins.
Continue following the trail west, past another Loyalist camp (although the trail doesn't enter this one), to the final destination: the Niffler Den.

Following the train of coins and collecting the coins are actually optional. You can head straight to the Niffler Den and the quest will continue like normal.
