What it is
HeriBase is a mobile app for coin and banknote collectors, previously known as HeritCoin. You photograph both sides of a coin and the AI suggests a match, which you then confirm against the date, lettering, design and mint mark. The app shows reference prices, tracks the estimated value of your collection over time and offers a 3D view for rotating and sharing coins. For harder cases, users can pay for appraisals from named numismatic specialists, and a marketplace supports buying and selling with other collectors. It is available on iOS and Android, with free daily scans and an optional subscription.

Editor's notes
More context from AI BirdView
HeriBase stands out for how carefully it frames what a photo match can and cannot tell you. Its help center explains that a suggested identification still needs to be checked against the coin in hand, and it publishes the scope of its own accuracy testing rather than making blanket claims. That makes it a thoughtful companion for collectors at any level.
- Identifies both coins and banknotes from photos of each side
- Tracks the estimated value of a whole collection over time
- Optional paid reviews from numismatic specialists in areas such as euro, U.S. and world coins
- A marketplace for buying and selling with other collectors
- 3D collection views that can be rotated and shared
It is best for hobby collectors, people sorting an inherited coin jar and anyone curious whether a piece is worth a closer look. A practical tip: shoot both sides in even light with the whole coin in focus, then compare the date and mint mark yourself before trusting a value, and use an in-hand grading service before any significant sale.
