Identify US coins from a photo. CoinDate is a coin identifier and coin scanner for wheat pennies, Morgan dollars, silver eagles, and everyday pocket change — so you can see the type, typical value, and what a coin may be worth. Snap the obverse and reverse. Matching runs on your iPhone in seconds. No account. Photos are not uploaded to identify them. See key dates, mint marks, and typical retail ranges by condition. Built for jars, drawers, and inherited collections: Lincoln cents, Buffalo nickels, Mercury dimes, and classic US gold. WHY PEOPLE DOWNLOAD COINDATE • Identify a United States coin with the camera or a library photo • Typical retail ranges for circulated and uncirculated condition — reference estimates, not an appraisal • Key dates and mint marks called out, so a 1909-S VDB or 1916-D does not look like pocket change • Close matches when two types look alike. You confirm the year and mint for a tighter range • Collection and history stay on this iPhone • Search the catalog by type, year, mint, VDB, and more • Short guides on varieties, mint errors, and what actually moves US coin prices • 10 languages. Unlimited identifications and full estimates with Premium COINDATE PREMIUM Unlimited identifications and full typical-retail estimates for United States coins. • Weekly Premium — auto-renews weekly • Yearly Premium — auto-renews yearly • Lifetime Premium — one-time unlock (not a subscription) Prices are shown in the app before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period, at the rate shown. Manage or cancel in iPhone Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions. Any unused portion of a free trial, if offered, is forfeited when you purchase a subscription, where applicable. Lifetime is a non-consumable purchase; restore it with Restore Purchases. IMPORTANT CoinDate covers United States coins. It does not grade or authenticate coins, and it is not affiliated with the United States Mint, PCGS, NGC, or ANA. Values are typical retail ranges compiled from public numismatic references. Condition, eye appeal, and the live market can change what a coin brings. For a sale or insurance, consult a professional numismatist or recent auction results.
