The veteran players of Overwatch will know that it previously featured loot boxes that helped you obtain items like poses, emotes, skins, and sprays. However, in Overwatch 2, you will use a new in-game currency.
The premium currency is called Coins, which can be obtained in several ways in the game.
Getting The Overwatch Coins For Free
You can collect the Overwatch Coins to get different skins and emotes for free by completing the weekly challenges. The process might be grinding, but after collecting a certain amount of Coins, you will be able to obtain the battle pass as well.

Weekly Challenges
Every week you will have to complete 11 challenges, and after completing them all, you will get a total of 60 Coins in Overwatch. Therefore if you complete all the weekly challenges, you will be able to earn 240 Coins in a month. 
Buying The Overwatch Coins
The best option to get the skins and emotes fast, as well as the battle pass, is to buy the Overwatch Coins using real currency. Doing so will help you save time and get all the latest skins and even the battle pass. You can buy the Coins by visiting the in-game store and choosing the deal you want.
In order to buy the Coins, you need to open the Shop Tab. After that, click on the Plus Icon that will be located near the logo of Overwatch Coins. It will be located in the top right corner of your screen.
The prices of Coins go from $5 to $100 in the game. Also, keep in mind that you cannot get the Coins any other way.

My Tips On Quickly Getting Coins
Well, as for Overwatch 2 players, the fastest way to bag up Overwatch coins is to spend real-life money to buy them from the store. However, not everyone wants to spend money on a game most of the time. So, in that case, I think completing different weekly challenges is the best way to get free Overwatch coins, although it is a slow process.
Apart from the weekly challenges, players can also get Overwatch coins from different event challenges; for instance, as of writing the following guide, the ongoing Halloween event challenge can also let players bag up quite a large number of Overwatch coins.
Summing It Up
With this, I conclude my guide on Coins and how to get them in the game. Overwatch Coins play a huge role as they will help you get various cosmetic items like sprays, emotes, and skins, as well as the battle pass.
You can obtain them by spending real money, or you can farm them in the game by completing weekly challenges. Hopefully, my guide helped you with the new currency system in Overwatch 2.
