The sound comes from the Dutch-language version of SpongeBob SquarePants, where the phrase translates as two gold coins. Short dubbed lines like this are often clipped from episodes and shared on soundboards because they are instantly recognisable even without the original scene. It belongs with other SpongeBob clips, including the spongebob sad song and the my leg fish sound, and it has stayed useful because the idea of a small, hard-won reward fits countless gaming, shopping and everyday jokes. Its brevity is part of its appeal.
