Numismatics is a hobby that gathers thousands of people in the United States, where coins or banknotes with values that reach thousands of dollars are auctioned and acquired daily. Sometimes, someone could be using one of these valuable coins without being aware of the small fortune they are carrying in their hands or pocket.
To help identify these coins or bills, there are specialized entities and collectors that offer their services, although they generally charge high fees due to their knowledge and experience. In response to this need, mobile applications have emerged that allow people to identify United States coins quickly and online, offering an accessible and practical solution for enthusiasts.
Three apps to identify valuable coins
CoinSnap
This application offers the possibility of obtaining detailed information about a coin by simply taking a photograph of it. The image is analyzed by an artificial intelligence system that compares it with an extensive database.
If matches are detected, the system provides data about the coin, including its real market value.
CoinFacts
The application is owned by the Professional Coin Grading Service, a renowned entity in the United States numismatic market.
This system stands out for having the most extensive catalog of coins, which gives it a significant advantage in the identification and valuation of pieces, consolidating its prestige in the numismatic world.
Coinoscope
This application is as easy to use as the first one, since it uses an artificial intelligence capable of recognizing the characteristics of a coin to evaluate it and determine its value in the market.
However, those who want a version without ads and with more specific details can opt for the PRO version, available for a cost of $9.99.
