Top reviews

Not accurate as far as appraisal. And it’s very annoying. I do not recommend this app!

I’m giving this app a one star because every time I get on it’s asking me to write a review 2-3 times each time I get on it even when I’m getting ready to scan a coin and I’m not sure the appraisals are right because I have HeriBase and CoinSnap and their appraisals are way different than this app! It says I have three Sacajawea cheerio one dollar coins and I know for a fact they are not. It’s not worth your money. I do not recommend this app.

We appreciate your patience and hope to earn back your confidence.

We tried to do it didn’t work

It took us five minutes to see the coin right is left left is right

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience. For the best results, we recommend placing the coin on a flat, well-lit surface and centering it in the camera frame. If you continue to have trouble with recognition accuracy, please contact our support team directly — we'd be happy to walk you through some tips to improve your results and look into any technical issues you may be experiencing.

Wrong sometimes

I had a hard time with this app even working. Kept saying I had no signal but my phone showed me I hadn’t. Also got them wrong sometimes and it dose not check for errors like it said it did. So I cancelled my subscription.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback, Squirrel 55. We sincerely apologize for the frustrating experience you had. Connectivity errors when your signal is working properly, along with inaccurate coin identifications, are issues we take very seriously. We also understand your concern about the error-checking feature not working as described — that's something our team is actively investigating to improve. Your experience matters to us, and your feedback helps us get better. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact our support team.

Coin Database

The app needs the coin database updated to include newer coins. It is A shame that they push this as being such A good coin app but it can not identify coins properly that are A couple of years old due to the outdated coin database. If they start updating that it would be worth the premium purchase but as it sits now it is not worth the cost and I would not recommend it

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to share this detailed feedback. We're sorry the scanning results haven't been accurate for your Silver Eagles, including the privy coins. We'd like to investigate the misidentified years and the missing data so we can improve recognition for these coins. Please contact our support team with photos of the coins in question and a description of the issue, and we'll work to resolve it as quickly as possible. Your input genuinely helps us refine our identification accuracy.

Unwanted reviews

Why bother me when I'm trying to look at a coin with this stupid pop-up? No I'm not enjoying it. I can't get anything done and you're wasting my free time. Also this is an DDR 1964 Roosevelt and your system did not pick it up. Not sure subscription is worth it

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the frustrating experience with the review pop-up — we understand how disruptive that can be during use, and we'll share your concern with our team. Regarding the 1964 Roosevelt DDR not being identified correctly, we understand how disappointing that can be. For best results, we recommend ensuring even lighting with no glare, placing the coin on a plain, dark background, and capturing a close-up, focused shot of both sides. Doubled die varieties can be particularly subtle, so a sharp, well-lit image makes a significant difference in recognition accuracy. We want to make sure your subscription feels worthwhile, and your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve. If you continue to experience any issues, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team directly — we're happy to assist.

Tutorial

Don’t really know how to find the value of the coin, maybe add a tutorial to help new downloads

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback, BluePop1009! We're sorry to hear you had trouble finding the coin valuation feature. To get started, simply take a clear photo of your coin using the camera icon, and the app will provide identification and value details. We appreciate your suggestion for a tutorial — we'll pass this along to our development team for consideration. If you need any further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact our support team directly.

Takes too long and isn't helpful

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the frustration caused by the review prompts and that the app did not meet your expectations. We are constantly working to optimize our processing speed and improve our coin identification accuracy. Your input helps us improve, and we hope to provide a better experience in future updates.

Couldn’t Identify Any Coin

As suggested, we used the camera instead of uploading an image. We upped the lighting, gave it a high contrast background, and several chances, with clear photos.

It couldn’t even get the denomination correct.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback, and we appreciate the care you took with the lighting, background, and photos. Coin recognition can be affected by a range of factors, and we'd like to take a closer look at the cases you experienced. Please contact our support team with the specific coins and photos you tried, and we'll be glad to review the results with you and help find a solution. We value your patience and would welcome the opportunity to improve your experience.

Coin year

The app is scanning my silver eagles and selecting the wrong year and can not be changed saying no data. It also will not identify A silver eagle privy coin and I have 2. This needs addressed to work properly as it is A worthless app for me to have paid the premium subscription

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to share this detailed feedback. We're sorry the scanning results haven't been accurate for your Silver Eagles, including the privy coins. We'd like to investigate the misidentified years and the missing data so we can improve recognition for these coins. Please contact our support team with photos of the coins in question and a description of the issue, and we'll work to resolve it as quickly as possible. Your input genuinely helps us refine our identification accuracy.

2026 Mayflower Compact Quarter

I am guessing that the Coin Value Checker is not up to date….. I have been trying to ID the 2026 Mayflower Compact Quarter (first coin issued as part of the U.S. Mint's Semiquincentennial program). The app is unable to check the coin for me because it keeps telling me it can only assess a US coin. This is a US coin!!!!!

Response from developer

Hi Terri, thank you for flagging this. You're absolutely right that the 2026 Mayflower Compact Quarter is a U.S. coin, and we apologize for the trouble. Newly released coins, especially those from the Semiquincentennial program, can take time to be added to our recognition database, which is likely why it isn't being identified correctly yet. We've shared this with our team to prioritize adding the 2026 Semiquincentennial series. In the meantime, please make sure your app is updated to the latest version, as recognition data is refreshed through updates. If the issue continues, feel free to reach out to our support team directly so we can assist further. We appreciate your patience and your help in improving the experience.

Bad mint

Bad price

Response from developer

Hi, thanks for your feedback. Coin identification can be influenced by lighting, angle, image clarity, and wear, while values depend on factors like mint mark, grade, condition, rarity, and current market demand. We're continuously working to improve recognition accuracy and pricing data. Please contact our support team with the coin details, and we'll be glad to take a closer look.

Pretty good app

This isn’t a bad app sometimes it gives you the wrong price of coins such as it said I had three Cheerios Sacajawea dollar coins when in fact they are not the Cheerios kind unfortunately

Fix you app!!

We paid for this and it crashes all the time or freeze has for a few months and they should give our money back!!!!

Response from developer

Thank you for reaching out, and we sincerely apologize for the crashes and freezing you've been experiencing. We completely understand your frustration, especially as a paying subscriber dealing with this for months — that is not the experience we want for you. Please contact our support team with your device details so we can investigate the issue. For a refund, you may also submit a request directly at reportaproblem.apple.com. We appreciate your patience and are committed to making this right.

Harassment

After only 1 coin it is asking for a rating, 2nd coin the same , rd 3 again asking , so I have had only a few minutes with this application and it has asked me 3 times in only a few min if I would rate it , so 1 star for harassing me

Response from developer

Thank you for your honest feedback. We sincerely apologize for the interruptions — being prompted for a rating multiple times within minutes is frustrating, and we completely understand your reaction. This is not the experience we intend for our users. We have shared your feedback with our development team, and the frequency of rating prompts is something we will take into consideration as we continue to improve the app. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share this. If you have any further concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team.

Accurate

Response from developer

Thank you for the wonderful review! We love hearing that you are enjoying the app with your grandkids — what a great way to make learning about money fun and meaningful. We hope it continues to bring joy to your family!

Scam site

After my 7 day free trial that was very helpful, I decided to pay the $39.99 for a year. Worst decision ever. It keeps directing me to a site to purchase more access. I bought the premium subscription & have restored it several times.

Response from developer

We sincerely apologize for this issue. You should have full premium access after purchasing the annual subscription, and we understand your frustration. This shouldn't be happening. Please contact our support team with your account details. We'll immediately investigate why you're being redirected and ensure your premium subscription is properly activated. We appreciate your feedback and want to resolve this for you right away.

Inaccurate

Easy to use app, but all the coins I tried said they are valued over $150 which is highly unlikely. The coins are worn, dirty and not defects.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback on CoinValueChecker! We appreciate you pointing this out. Coin valuation can be affected by various factors, and we're continuously working to improve accuracy, especially for worn or circulated coins. If you'd like assistance with specific coins, please reach out to our support team. We value your input!
