Banknote identifier app for Android

Banknote & Coin ID is a banknote identifier: photograph a note (or pick one from your gallery), crop to the edges, and get country, denomination, series, a Pick catalogue reference when confident, condition, and — on Pro — collector-market value ranges. It also identifies coins. Free to download with three lifetime scans.

What you actually get

A useful identifier answers “what issue is this?” not “is this genuine?” or “what will a dealer pay today?” From a clear photo, this app returns structured fields: country and currency, denomination, series or year, Pick or KM number when readable, a condition estimate, serial or mint mark when visible, and a confidence score.

Results save locally in History and a personal collection. There is no account. Photos go over HTTPS for identification and are not kept as a server-side archive.

How it compares to looking it up yourself

You can always search catalogues by country and denomination. That works when you already know the country. A photo-first identifier is for leftover travel money, mixed estate lots, and notes whose script you cannot type. It is slower to shoot a bad photo than to crop well once — see how to identify a banknote.

What this app will not do

• Detect counterfeits or certify authenticity.
• Issue an official appraisal or insurance value.
• Identify without a network connection (saved collection still works offline).

Pricing

Three lifetime identifications on the free plan, counted so they survive reinstall. Pro (Google Play, weekly from $3.99 USD or $24.99 per year) unlocks unlimited scans, value ranges, the full condition report, and two-sided capture. Cancel in Google Play. Details on the pricing section.

How Banknote & Coin ID helps

Open the app, scan a note, crop, Identify. On-device fancy serial checks flag radar and repeater patterns without an extra server call. Keep pieces together instead of a camera roll full of unmarked photos.

FAQ

Is there a banknote identifier for iPhone?

This app is Android only. The same workflow — photo, crop, catalogue fields — is what you should look for on any platform.

Does it work on current and older notes?

The identifier reads visible design from any era it can match. Confidence drops on poor photos and obscure or damaged issues.
