Cents: Lincoln Memorial and Wheat Cents
Lincoln Cents from 1909 to present are among the most widely collected US coins. The app identifies the specific year and mint (Philadelphia, Denver, San Francisco) and flags key dates like the 1909-S VDB, the 1914-D, and the 1955 Doubled Die. Pre-1982 zinc-core cents are also distinguished from their copper predecessors.
Wheat Cents (1909–1958) are a particular focus — the app identifies all major die varieties in this series and provides current retail values in grades from Good through MS-65.
Nickels, dimes, and quarters
Jefferson Nickels (1938–present), Roosevelt Dimes (1946–present), and Washington Quarters (1932–present) are all covered in full, including War Nickels (1942–1945 silver issues), silver Roosevelt Dimes (1946–1964), and the complete State Quarter and America the Beautiful series.
The app handles the subtleties within these series — the Full Steps designation on Jefferson Nickels, Full Bands on Roosevelt Dimes, and the difference between proof and business strike Washington Quarters — details that significantly affect value for top-grade examples.
Half dollars and silver dollars
Walking Liberty, Franklin, and Kennedy Half Dollars are all covered, including 40% silver Kennedy halves from 1965–1970 that many people overlook. For silver dollars, the app covers Morgan Dollars (1878–1921), Peace Dollars (1921–1935), and Eisenhower and Susan B. Anthony Dollars.
Morgan and Peace Dollars are among the most popular collecting series in the US, and the app includes all major VAM (Variety Attribution and Marketing) varieties for key dates — valuable information for specialists.
Gold coins and commemoratives
Pre-1933 US gold coins — Indian Head and Liberty Head Eagles, Double Eagles, and smaller denominations — are identified with melt and market values reflecting live gold spot prices. Modern US commemoratives and bullion coins (American Gold Eagle, American Silver Eagle, American Platinum Eagle) are covered in full.
For gold coins, the app shows both the numismatic value (collector premium) and the current melt value so you always know the floor price before any sale or purchase decision.
