### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2026-08-08, version 1.2.6*

It’s says my 1980 quarter is a Canadian nickel.

### 1/5 — Terrible app!

*2026-08-08, version 1.2.6*

Terrible app! The first coin I scanned was a Sacagawea dollar. The app said it was Canadian coin. The next two coins were quarters. The app said “coin could not be recognised”.

### 1/5 — Really?!!

*2026-08-04, version 1.2.6*

7 1/2 dollars and a silver dollar all identified as Canadian .05 coin.  Really??!!

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-08-04, version 1.2.6*

Save your money,

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2026-08-03, version 1.2.6*

First coin scanned. The app identified it as a Canadian nickel. It was a 2026 US Dime. Second coin scanned got exactly the same result. Identified as a Canadian nickel but it was actually a US quarter. Shame on you.

### 1/5 — Identifying coins

*2026-08-03, version 1.2.6*

So far, the first two coins, I took a picture of to check accuracy of app and it’s been wrong both times so how am I supposed to trust what it says?

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time… and money!

*2026-08-03, version 1.2.6*

Got a simple us quarter wrong, twice identifying it as a Canadian nickel! Twice! And there’s nowhere to report that it got it wrong- so mistakes have no way of being corrected.

### 1/5 — Renise Hunt

*2026-07-28*

Does not do any of the things advertised! I had the same problem with the year. It was very clear and came up with a different year. Also labeling the coin as another coin, not the sitting liberty! The value came up as from $20 - $1800. 
A really wide gap and no reference where it can be sold. I revised 3 coins and all of them came back identical to this one. Unfortunately I thought this would be a great app and paid for it for the year!! Duh!
When was the last update the developer did? Can you do an update soon fixing some of the problem?
If not, can I get a refund?
If they would spend as much money and time that they spend on advertising this product and fix it then it would be great! Because I see an ad for it attest 5 times a day!!

*2026-07-13, version 1.2.4*

This is the worst app ever 🤮👩🏿‍🦰👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩👭👨🏿‍🦯‍➡️🧌🥷🏿🧑🏿‍🎤

### 1/5 — Not Even Close

*2026-07-12, version 1.2.4*

I scanned three different coins and they all came back as a Canadian Nickel, no, 1880 Morgan, Bicentennial Silver Proof Quarter and an 1844 seated liberty, not even remotely the same. It said melt value on a 1oz silver coin was a dollar, price is $50.00 an ounce right now. Not impressed at all.

### 1/5 — Did not work

*2026-05-28, version 1.2.2*

App does not do what it says it will do

### 1/5 — Incorrect info

*2026-05-13, version 1.2.2*

Just bad app. Wrong description of all coins. Before you charge people you
Might want to make sure your al works

### 1/5 — SCAM SOFTWARE

*2025-12-27, version 1.1.1*

Mis Identified Common Morgan Silver Dollar 10/10 trys. Fails to save new scans when added to collection -Complete JUNK

### 1/5 — Wrong year

*2025-12-25, version 1.1.1*

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2025-12-21, version 1.1.0*

Doesn’t work it keeps on resetting your picture and ask you to pay for a subscription every 2 minutes. Do not recommend.

### 1/5 — How do you get coins for the funds

*2026-09-03, version 1.2.6*

How do you get coins four your funds are it just a game

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Identify Coins

*2026-09-01, version 1.2.6*

This tool for coin identification does not work. I tried to identify 3 Peace dollars individually. It identified one as a 50 cent piece and another something from Canada…

### 1/5 — Really Bad

*2026-08-31, version 1.2.6*

Doesn’t identify a single coin correctly like the other users reported. Garbage

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-08-31, version 1.2.6*

This may be the worst coin app of all time. NONE of the information is correct. It’s not even remotely accurate.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-08-24, version 1.2.6*

Total scam. Does not identify ANY coin correctly!

### 1/5 — Not good at all

*2026-08-24, version 1.2.6*

So bad. Could not read a Spanish coin . Said it was a Canadian coin.

### 1/5 — Free trial period

*2026-08-19, version 1.2.6*

REFUND MY MONEY MY EMAIL HASN'T BEEN READ WHEN I CANCELLED WAY BEFORE THE TRIAL ENDED. The email you have on the website I don't care if your in China or Africa give me back my freaking money and destroy that fake subscription, immediately

### 1/5 — Don’t wast your time

*2026-08-18, version 1.2.6*

This is a Zero rating. It identifies everything as a Canadian nickel. Every single coin is a Canadian nickel! Amazing!

### 1/5 — So bad

*2026-08-15, version 1.2.6*

If I could give it a zero I would, if I could give it a negative I would did not identify a single coin properly. Then when I try to cancel very hard to find the settings to cancel totally worthless do not recommend and do not use.

### 1/5 — Not acccurate

*2026-08-09, version 1.2.6*

Several of the US coins I scanned were identified incorrectly as Canadian. It allowed me to add some to a collection but not others. Not even worth the .29 cents I paid for the 7-day trial. Cancelling now.

*2025-12-18, version 1.1.0*

In good for all to

### 2/5 — Not useful

*2026-06-09, version 1.2.2*

I scanned a Morgan Silver dollar, it came back as a Canadian nickel. I then scanned a 1902 indian head wheat Penny, which came back a Canadian nickel. Waste of time and money.

### 2/5 — Not accurate

*2025-12-29, version 1.1.1*

I scanned a couple of coins that clearly identified the year it was printed and it’s completely different on the description. Scanned a silver dollar buffalo head and again, described as a buffalo nickel.
