How do you get more coins in Hogwarts Legacy?

Money is incredibly useful in Hogwarts Legacy for recipes, better gear, materials, and much more. What can you do other than the above to get more coins and make money fast in Hogwarts Legacy then?

Well, you can always sell your unused gear. Rid yourself of hats, gloves, and robes that are not being worn, and earn yourself some easy money. As we mentioned earlier, Monster Chests are a great way to earn money too.
