Coinoscope - A Visual Search Engine For Coins

[Serendipity]

Coinoscope is a visual search engine for coins. Coinoscope makes coin recognition easy - just snap a picture of a coin with your phone camera and the app will show you a list of similar coins.

It is good - I found 4 of my sample coins but did not find my Cook Islands 2 Dollar Coin which is triangular?

Yeah - im loving it - nailing all my coins and sometimes (like photos) you get a miss read - refocus and , boom gets it!

I have a load of Cook Islands coins... one of the only non PM coins that are triagular coins I know.

Great idea but didn't work at all for me on 10 shields I tested

I've been wanting to find out what this is for ages.  I found it at the back of a drawer when I was clearing out my old folks house.  Just had a go on Coinoscope and it got it nailed in a couple of tries.  And this coin is pretty mangled up.  A good specimen, it is not!  It's a 1793 Catherine II Russian 5 Kopek piece!!

Coinoscope is an amazing thing, which is more than I can say for my hopes of landing a super rare collectable coin..... It. wouldn't buy a round of drinks at the pub (remember that?)

Yes, amazing. All we need now is a fake detection.

Worked well on my first try with a poor image. Next step was to Google it and loads of replica's came up.
