CoinSnap Reviews

Don’t want it

Every coin is wrong , it only shows American coins , nothing foreign, when it did pop up the right coin it was the wrong year , no values either , someone can do much better than this making an app

I used five coins to test the accuracy of CoinSnap:

1. 505-480BC 1 Siglos from the Achaemenidian Empire
I did not have high hopes for this coin because it is both ancient and fairly rare. But it identified as a U.S. 25 cents Mt. Rushmore silver proof. This is so far off that it’s absurd.

2. 1885 Morgan Dollar
This is the only coin CoinSnap correctly identified. It is a MS 64+ so I expected it to correctly identify it. Though the apps display of a valuation is false advertising (unless this is a paid feature.

3. 1808 Half Cent
This coin was incorrectly identified as a 10 cent Roosevelt silver proof. The coin is worn so it is hard to identify without proper lighting. Nonetheless, the identification of the coin as a silver proof is ridiculous as the coin is completely brown and doesn’t look toned.

4. 1975 Singaporean 10 Dollar
This coin was incorrectly identified as a 1 dollar Robert F. Kennedy. Given that this coin is also solve it is more understandable. But it is still very far off.

5. 1997 One Cent
This coin was misidentified as a 1 dollar Native American series. The coin isn’t in the best condition. But being so far off on a modern coin is inexcusable.

In addition to misidentifications another flaw I noticed is that CoinSnap (in some instances) refers to the coins as species. This shows that CoinSnap is a copy of the rock and plant versions and is reflective of the companies laziness.

All-in-all CoinSnap is extremely flawed and it cannot be recommended for even basic numismatic purposes. A basic book or even a google search would be more efficient.

Considering:The biggest issue is there no security services for data transmission also you don’t need our personal identity there lot apps out there not gathering your personal identity about us
I mean is if your company computers get hacked by other countries they will have our personal identity , to credit other personal information it will happens I know couple yrs ago a bank and some companies where hacked. Any data collected from other app through through a secure connection. So I give better rating if the was some security services put up. I know a police chief where I live will say same thing. That’s why I give on star there no security for data collecting. I will download again if there is security devices innext update for data transfer and linked not to our personal identity. Developers did a poor in sight about security services in data collectingand for linking in personal identity to the company computer.

Pros: the grading, information, value, reading heavily worn coins it’s a nice app. But the cons listed above is why I give a poor rating with one star. So maybe if developers add security services and CoinSnap not linked our personal identity to your server’s I will give a better rating and reinstall CoinSnap

I had downloaded the trial on my iPad to see if it would us usful enough to look up some things for my father. Before getting to try out CoinSnap I broke my iPad and had to make a claim on replacement. I received it and had to use a iCloud back up from my iPhone instead of the tablet I originally installed on. The same night I activated my replacement tablet with my carrier I received a notification from PayPal with a unfamiliar charge from apple. It was CoinSnap charging me for a full year sub. I immediately cancelled and contacted apple and PayPal for a dispute as I felt I had never gotten the chance to either use CoinSnap at all nor a chance to cancel before getting charged since I replaced my ipad. Thinking I’d get an understanding response for my situation, these lowlifes apparently need that money more than my family and are actually refuting my request for a refund. I’ll be reviewing and sharing this experience anywhere I can with my spare time. Avoid CoinSnap, they are horrible at communicating when a concern comes to rise.

So I was really excited to sort out this jar of pennies I have into “Spend” and “Get Appraised”. I thought CoinSnap would be a HUGE help-I was wrong.
Not only does CoinSnap not tell me if I have an error coin, it also only provides brief descriptions about the coin’s POTENTIAL errors. And not even customized descriptions either. 1984 pennies mention possible errors of die breaks or off center strikes, but heavens forbid it bothers to mention double ears or other visual cues to pick up on.
And even if you understand the very vague descriptions there aren’t any pictures specific to each coin so I’ve got something to compare with.
This is with premium service! Paying for premium, I’d expect a catalog of references for error coins for visual comparison, since the AI doesn’t actually seem to ID error coins like we’re led to believe.
Very disappointed.

this app is by far the most brilliant product as far as scanning the coin and those images being saved with the coin data. The fact that the scans are used to grade the coin is even greater.

HOWEVER…. ALL the time and effort that I put into this project to try and document my now deceased fathers coin collection only to find that there is absolutely NO WAY to PRINT/list the data is a painfully frustrating issue. Why would such a brilliant product not have any way to print or export the data. Then the help suggested that I create a spreadsheet and copy/paste all the information one by one….I was so thrilled and now greatly let down. This definitely one of the biggest product improvements you could make.

Me and my grandpa collect coins together so when I saw a ad for this I knew that it was exactly what I needed and I got it and it did bombard me with subscriptions and premium deals which was really annoying and it also only lets premium members use the extra good identification so I am mad about that but other than that it was pretty good but the developers need to make the extra good identification for everyone because it is not fair and I should not have to pay 9+ dollars a month so that I get a specific answer from CoinSnap when I downloaded it to give me specific answers also I was trying to identify one of my grandpas coins that is rare and is from ancient china so I specified the exact dynasty and that coin identifier robot guy denied the empire ever existed and would not give me a straight answer and then at the end it asked me if the results were satisfactory and I said no and it said the developers are always working to improve it wich I do not believe because if that was true then it would have been made completely free a long time ago. The normal coin identification process is actually pretty well made so I can give the developers that but it definitely needs improvement

Really helpful for identifying old coins. Especially ones I had from other counties. After doing all the work to take hundred of pics of my coins with CoinSnap , I didn’t realize that there wasn’t a way to download all of the pics of the coins I put into CoinSnap without having to go back in and download load each pic individually. The option to download all of the pics at once would be really helpful considering it took a few hours in the first place. Also, to use the “grade my coin” option, I have to take pics again of the same coin instead of just using the pics I just took.

I have a premium membership and I really have a loved it. Extremely helpful on foreign coins. But the reason I can’t give it five stars is because I can find no way to import the coins that don’t photograph well enough for CoinSnap .
Some of us collectors have very old, if not ancient coins that we have researched and know what it is, but there’s no way to put it in our collection inside CoinSnap because it doesn’t photograph well enough.
It would be great to see an option after the photograph is taken that you can click on input coin data if it is wrong. Currently you’re limited to maybe changing a year and a grading but no way to change the name of the type of coin.
If there is an option, and I just can’t find it, let me know and I will change my rating, because I do really enjoyed CoinSnap !

Read review with excitement I downloaded app and uploaded my first coin thinking CoinSnap was gonna help me with my collected coins I’ve gathered over a lifetime but then I realized there wasn’t an option for circulated coins I’ve acquired (which pretty much is my whole collection)

-when grading coins CoinSnap only allows for uncirculated coins I guess.
I didn’t see an option to select ie: pocket change or coins acquired in circulation or found coin from change etc as I believe other downloaders of CoinSnap assumed besides me-
mislead by advertisements

CoinSnap DOES NOT GIVE YOU THE VALUE OF YOUR OLD COINS YOU'VE COLLECTED OVER THE YEARS - it only gives the expected value of minted or proof uncirculated collected coins which most people don’t really have or care about

I want to know how much value if any my old coins found over the years have -meaning: does this 1965 silver quarter I found while doing laundry have a value more than the 25 cents it’ll credit me in this washing machine right now?!

If you add this ”circulated option” to your “grading and value search” in your coin app then I’ll give you five stars and a favorite app of all time review.

I love CoinSnap, but it has its problems. First of all I have the premium subscription for CoinSnap and it still has the same problems… frustrating! The main problem with CoinSnap is that whenever I open CoinSnap on my iPad it automatically rotates to the side… meaning that I have to hold my iPad all weird. With it rotated like that it’s really hard to take pictures on CoinSnap because of my iPad case. I have tried everything but nothing can fix it. It’s very frustrating to be paying for this and have the same bad issues! It would make sense for it to rotate if CoinSnap was for phones alone, but it says that it is a iPhone and iPad app. That’s primarily the only reason that I am giving CoinSnap a three star rating. I do love the rating system though.

this game is amazing. It’s useful and perfect for me since I love collecting old things because it’s cool to think about- but that’s past the point. All the info on the coins inputted are spectacular, but, I do have one grudge with one of my coins, which, shows up as some different coin when I take a picture of it. The coin is this “library coin” and it’s super interesting. But it just doesn’t look like my coin when I see the actual pictures of it. But anyways- some of my other critiques, are easy to handle. 4/5 for that because it’s SO hard to get the perfect fit for my coins. But it’s amazing and organized and super easy to find what I want to look at. My last problem is that it’s SO SLOWW. It has a few bugs especially when it comes to the loading the coin pages up. Every time it can’t load, I have to double click the button, restart CoinSnap and take another picture of it. That’s one of the burg reasons I put a 3. Still, overall a great app to approach if you have a coin collection and you want to know the value. Stay safe :)

There are many good capabilities in this app, but the catalogues are incomplete, wherein several common coin types are not linked to values. There are several additional steps to add a coin in some catalogues that are resolved in other catalogues. The value range is nice, but not what I would expect for a product one pays $30 annually for, given the grading feature which should refine the value of your particular coin. I would be curious to see how they accept user feedback to improve CoinSnap ’s usability. I emailed them yesterday, since no phone number, and did not receive a reply yet. There doesn’t seem to be an option to look up value for sets such as a standard proof set etc.

I really like CoinSnap, works well as far as it goes. However I’m not a gambler and since the developer does not reveal what options you get if you pay for it, I’m unwilling to spend money to find out if you can organize your coins into groups such as country of origin or types of coins and to print out the results.
I used CoinSnap to identify more than 50 coins and it accurately identified 49 of them. Mint marks were accurately noted in about half, but condition and therefore value were way too generous.
You have to scan the coin twice to get the condition and that value isn’t adjustable as the mint mark judgments are.
If the above conditions were corrected, CoinSnap would be well worth it.

It’s a very nice app it’s good to get a roundabout price. It would be nice to tell you what the imperfections are in the coins that are worth a lot. For instance, it could be worth between eight cents and $256,000 and that’s with the date, and the mint stamp on it, so then I have to go to a different site and see what people are selling it for and see what the imperfections are. That’s about the only problem I have with CoinSnap . It’s been great. I haven’t pulled out my coin collection since I was 13 and now I am 42 and some of the stuff I have seems like it could be worth a lot of money. So now I’m gonna go to a coin specialist and get them appraised. And I wouldn’t have done that without this site I seen it, and it made me remember about my coins in my old hope chest

it could mean all of the difference in the world by one year or one mint mark recently a 1943 copper penny sold for $1,000,000 if CoinSnap told me it was a 1944… You can figure it out from there... I had a 2016 D penny and it came across as a 2019 D I gave it two stars instead of one because it got the mint mark correct which is impressive anyway I am one day into my free trial so I will update this accordingly when I check more coins of different denomination or if I hear back from the developers.......**update** I am changing my review from two stars to four stars I am not giving it five because I suggest you guys snap the photo of your coin in the identifier twice

Great app for a novice coin collector. But there are GUI issues. For example, when you “grade” a coin (by taking its photo), and decide to “add it to a collection”, it doesn’t store the photo you just took. Instead, it stores a generic reference photo in your collection in addition to its Grade. If you want the actual photo (without the Grade), you have to use the different camera icon. When you manually add the value of the coin, the pop up window with the number-pad totally covers the rest of the screen & its difficult to close the number-pad (ie, no ‘cancel’, ‘close’ or ‘ok’ button). Overall, good app if you just want simple grading. In fact, I have several PCGS graded coins that CoinSnap gave the same grade too. Only real drawback on grading (which is very subjective), is that CoinSnap will only grade ranges, not specific values. For example, it will grade a coin as MS but not specifically MS63. This is a bit frustrating since MS runs from MS60-MS70.

This is a wonderful app to grade and value your coins. I haven’t had the need yet to use the identify feature. I wouldn’t recommend CoinSnap currently as is today for logging your collection. There is no unique reference number or a wa to get an export or report view of your collection. You can see the total value of all coins but no way to see what is driving the value in your collection without looking at every single coin. Don’t get me wrong this is the best out there for what it does and I applaud the developer for adding a collection function.

I would first like to say that I love your app! It’s very easy to use and you don’t make me pay loads of money to use it. In fact, I haven’t paid anything as I just use the free version. But what I would like to see more of is, recognizing error coins without having to look them up. After I take pictures of my coin using your app, it identifies the coin and estimates a grade very well, but it would be nice if it simply told me if I had an error coin. I want to Fornieles that I understand you I didn’t find yours very well., But not specific airs on specific coins.. So after I take a picture, you identify and grade it, but you need to look at the error list next. I would like to add that I know you have an error list, but it does not give specific errors on specific coins. So then I pull up the Internet and find out where that particular error is on the coin. It’s just frustrating to do the extra work and I’m lazy.

I like CoinSnap a lot! It has many features I enjoy and helps me when deciding on buying coins or finding coins to keep with my pocket change or bank rolls. Only issue I really have with CoinSnap is the camera when snapping a pic of a coin to identify or grade. Sometimes it’s difficult to center the coin and get a quality photo for the identification process. I’d also like to see estimates and identification of foreign coins too. In all it’s a great app! Fairly priced! Very handy for the collector and easy to use for the new collectors as well!

This is a pretty good app. I’m impressed with how well the camera on CoinSnap picks up the details on the coins. You can start collections of what coins you have and even look up foreign coins. So your able yo do enough without buying. The one thing I would change is the error check. Right now, you snap a pic, then have option to grade the coin or see the know error coins for that year. With in the error coin section it give you the option to ‘check’ but its only a very generic and a bit vague description of the type of error. I’d much rather have a separate ‘learning’ type of section telling about the different kinds of error coins out there and under check have some pictures of the actual error coins or examples of other. It would also be nice to have a daily/streak bonus of some kind to entice me to come back on more of a regular basis. Maybe a silly game type of component, or a daily coin to collect would be sweet.

I sent a message earlier when asked about if I was a collector. I would like to add a little more to my answer
I have saved some coins through out my time. I also have some coins that my mother had saved. I feel the need to update my answers to the questions. I , along with everything I had said, I am kinda starting to get into the mindset that it would be something I would like doing. My eyes are getting so bad it’s hard for me to see the dates on most coins. I believe that is one reason I have such a hard time getting excited. I would like also add that while metal detecting I found a 1989 Indian head Penny from Illinois and a 1890 from Texas. I wish I had more experience as a younger person. I could have really liked it and my brain was a little bit sharper.
Thank you again.

Started collecting coins with my kids few years ago, now we’re in the process of cataloging, grading (with our nonprofessional eyes) and valuing the collection..one coin at a time. I spent hours taking photos of coins and looking up specs and history of each coin on the internet. Weighing and measuring, it’s been about 2 coins an hour until I found this app. We just got CoinSnap and have gone through two coins but it’s a fantastic app for what I need. I just put the coin on a flat surface with good light and good contrast between the coin and background. I’m using a black mouse pad, works great. CoinSnap guides you through taking the picture, it tells you when to snap the pic. It only took CoinSnap 2 or 3 seconds to identify and grade the coin. It presents you with all of the coin attributes you could want, specs (thickness, weight, diameter, scent). I definitely recommend CoinSnap based on my use so far.

📲💯DOWNLOAD CoinSnap🪙‼️Its fun cause you can collect and take pictures of all the coins on sets that are officially made already or you can start your own set. And really easy to use and most importantly you get really excited when you take a picture of a coin and the pricing that shows up as like $6,000, yup even I had not just one but maybe like 2 or 3 that said it was worth more than $6,000 so it gets exciting when that happens. There’s a lot more things that CoinSnap can do for free so much I can’t really think of all of them lol. It’s and amazing app you learn about coins and have some excitement and some fun as well I highly recommend CoinSnap even if your not into coins like that I would just try it out and I’m telling you’ll end up being so into coins, and of course if you are already into coins and some reason you have found or downloaded this is well just say your missing out lol👍💙

Very impressed with coin snap. I downloaded it from CoinSnap Store, entered the required card info, and was checking my first coin all within 5 minutes.
I don’t know anything about checking the value of coins but CoinSnap seems to know quite a bit.
I snapped a picture front and back of a nickel laying on the table and hit “check” within seconds I was provided with all kinds of information including value which as it turns out was worth more than 5 cents five times more actually!
The trial period is only 7 days but I’m already contemplating the annual fee of $29.
Who knows with CoinSnap I might find one coin that can pay that off 😁

Just loaded app. Snapped 4 coins, so far. My lighting where I took pictures is not bright. Yet, every coin was correctly identified as to year and exact description. Impressed so far. All coin estimated values were more than face value. This of course, is exciting to learn. Not high enough to cover cost of next meal, lol. Will be bringing out my coin stash, snap, turn, snap; perhaps one may be the one; changing my future 🙏🏻. Thanks for CoinSnap. Do you also have an app for paper notes? I’m giving a 4 star, until I review all my denominations.

Removed old trimmer head by inserting a hex key into the hole(s) at the base to hold the trimmer shaft in position. Removed the old head by simply unscrewing it from the end of the shaft. Simply did the opposite after some very minor assembly of the Speed Feed head and started trimming with the trimmer line that is pre-installed in the new head. Had the right sized connection on the end of the trimmer shaft already (my trimmer is a 15 or so year old Echo GT-2000) so I didn't even need to install a new connection (supplied with the Speed Feed head). Pretty much a "plug and play" sort of thing in my case. I recommend this seller and I will be doing business with you again.

This is CoinSnap that I have needed for a few years now. I really never bothered to look through CoinSnap Store because I just assumed there would not be an app that could actually do everything that I needed done. I buy & sale antiques & vintage items & occasionally I will see a good deal on a bulk coin Lot, so I usually have to go thru the whole lot one by one and look up the info on each one, and while it is a lot of fun & very interesting, it’s very time consuming.. so I just happened to look in CoinSnap store and CoinSnap scans the coin, tells you everything about the coin in a matter of seconds & lists in a collection for you. It can also grade the coin for you and has alot of other features as well. So basically, CoinSnap covers any & everything that someone may need done when collecting coins of any kind. Not just American coins… all foreign coins as well. Excellent App for coin collectors or for anyone that may be just needing to identify what type of coin, grade, estimated price, ect… of just a few coins.

In my opinion I think it’s safe to say that we all have to have some way to generate the flow of income to have some kind of way to obtain assets and it’s can be somewhat an ordeal
The saying that goes “it takes money to get money “ is the best way I can describe how CoinSnap approach this saying and very convenient if you ask me
Thank you very much
Hope CoinSnap in particular helps the consumer to invest the time convenience to have the ability to gain the benefit of this method of investing history for gained value as a way to obtaining currency of assets

Very interesting to see how many different kinds of coins are available to be worthy of a certain amount and levels. The best way to get to these coins would have been through an exchange rate system that would have been very different than what is currently being proposed by other coins and would have been more expensive than a regular. Thanks for your sharing and I will continue to look forward for more information about this coin.

This I don’t work I would help you take a look at your client and have a Feedback of the way it’s value or it’s conditions so recommend it to others to lose this website I mean CoinSnap and you will be able to use a lot of things with CoinSnap so try it it’s totally free and if you wanna make a prescription for a monthly for another special features you could be able to spend money, but it’s not necessary to value your coins

CoinSnap is everything I’ve needed. I’ve never been an avid coin collector. It started with collecting coins with the year of close relative birthdays. I then just thought it was neat to sift through them and see really old dated coins that aren’t circulating anymore. I then realized some could be worth money. I came across CoinSnap somehow and started looking through it. It’s so easy to navigate, tells me exactly what my coin is, offers the list of “error coins” that coincides with your certain coin.. I’m very pleased and happy I found CoinSnap!!

I’m impressed with CoinSnap so far. I’ve been a coin collector for about 15 years. Something I have a big bag of world coins. Some of those coins I had no idea where they come from, but with CoinSnap so far I’m able to find out. The coin grading tab work well, only a couple coins did I think it was probably wrong on the grade, but 99% of the time I think it spot on. Overall I think this is for sure a great tool for beginner coin collectors. It has a great data base, grading and inventory section. The yearly cost is also reasonable. Well done

CoinSnap is by far the best for coins. It gives you so much details, and I think the last thing to make CoinSnap even better would be to add a place to sell them. People have a hard time finding someone to sell coins, at least I do, and I know that if we could sell them that would make it so much easier on me. Please consider it. But even if you don’t sell the coins if we choose to put them up for sale, it’s an amazing app. If I could give it higher than a five out of five I would. Keep it up! And if you read this, thank you.

I am a coin dealer who has been involved in the hobby for 13 years. I saw the clickbait ads showing pocket change coins being valued at $5-$500 so I figured I’d give CoinSnap a shot. The identification works as expected but many apps have done this before. The price guide isn’t accurate but I’d argue no price guide today, even something like Greysheet wholesale bid isn’t accurate to the true market value of a coin as there are so many factors that influence the value.

Finally the grading. I’m actually impressed how decently well CoinSnap grades. It gives a broad range but I can forgive that as I know grading isn’t an exact science. It shows Goods and Goods, VG’s as VG’s, VF’s as VF’s, AU’s as AU’s. I’m pleasantly surprised it works decently well. I feel it may have a bias for brighter or dipped coins and a bias against darker coins with XF-AU level of detail but CoinSnap I feel still grades pretty well to give someone who is not as informed a general idea as to the grade of their coin.

Not sure what the subscription thing is for. I hate subscription services. Just let me pay a flat 30 bucks to access all the features permanently dammit!

Anyways despite the ads being obnoxious I’m surprised CoinSnap is of much higher quality then I expected.

CoinSnap is great in identifying coins and categorizing them where you can come back to update or decide on sending them to be professionally graded. It would be even better if it could assign a numerical number to the graded coin such as AU58 or MS70, currently the best I can get is the letter designation of the grade. Also it doesn’t distinguish between Mint state or proof grade either only shows results as mint state coins for all of the mints.
Another important part of grading a coin is the type of finish on the coin such as cameo or deep cameo which would also be a great improvement to CoinSnap. Currently the user has to manually input these selections to correctly log the completed coin entry. With these improvements to the imaging gathering aspect of CoinSnap it would definitely be a “have to have” tool for any collector, amateur or professional.

I got the CoinSnap because I recently started my own coin collection. It looks a tiny bit complicated at first, but you can easily figure out the whole app within a few minutes. There’s a collectors guide and a camera feature you can use to learn more about a coin and what it is worth in collectors eyes and basic reference value. But there was just one thing I was a little annoyed at. They used the same picture for a variety of coins that has different montages and dates instead of having individual pictures. If they update that CoinSnap is 11/10 for sure. (Comes with a free trial!!)

I lost so much and was really devastated, I had to seek help until I was directed to Mrs. Sharon O'Neil and her Recovery company and Foundatioan that helped me to recover all the money I had lost. It was really worth it. I will be happy to share my experience with anybody, you can also connect with him for help and assistance for a successful and secured investment without any loss of funds. mail Her, sharonrecoveringexperts @ gmail . c om

Never again waste of money

I scan a coin result 1.25 to 500... later scan the same coin .02... wait and scan a coin again .27 to 1.63 I dont know how reliable it is

Talk to you AI I can't tell me how much is a Mercury 1923 W dime worth it doesn't even give you the option under mint to put w do y'all even know what you're doing

I have enjoyed using the app as it gives me a starting point for evaluating my collections and pocket change. For selling, it doesn’t give me an opinion as to cleaned coins nor valuable errors. I’m sure that some professionals aren’t happy that us everyday collectors have that first step to obtaining a fair price. I’m a tech dummy, but if you add those two apps to your product, I would be first in line to buy!

Fraud, No contact number, automatically charge full price for subscription without notification even after cancellation. Need to be reported to the BBB and permanently removed from the App store

Immediately after the coin app failed to perform I cancelled the prescription using the proper iPhone cancellation steps. Then they attempted to charge me full price for a subscription. They are on engaged in fraud and need to be permremived from the App Store

i want to cancel ,i just downloaded on my phone ,i didnt realize there was a yearly fee

they claim that you can do a free trial for 7 days and you will be notified before the trail period is over so you can decide to keep it or not. They lied. I was never notified.

Have been trying to cancel for days. No contact info or phone number. I got charged for a year yesterday and I am not even happy with app. Need to hear from someone.

Price on coins are anywhere from .58 cents to $400 dollars in a 2003 quarter or .55 cents to $1,630. Cone on this s not even close to accurate
