Welcome to CoinSchool 👋
India's free reference for coins, banknotes & stamps — identify a coin, check what it sold for, browse catalogues, and follow every auction & exhibition. Here's how to use each part.
Identify a coin — Know Your Coin
Take or upload a photo (both sides if you have them). Drag the crop box over the coin, then tap Identify. You'll get the likely ruler, mint, princely state and an estimated value — plus similar coins from past auctions. Wrong result? Use the "Results incorrect?" box to send the correct answer.
What did it sell for? — Auction Archives
Search 4,50,000+ real auction lots by ruler, denomination, metal or keyword (e.g. "Gwalior rupee") and filter by house, price or date. Every result shows the realised price. Free — no login.
Browse the Catalogue
Explore coins & banknotes by category — Ancient, Sultanate, Mughal, Princely States, British India and the Republic — with reference prices (UNC/VF, 786 & fancy numbers). Dedicated catalogues for Malwa, Aurangzeb and Republic banknotes too.
Auctions & Exhibitions
See the schedule of upcoming coin auctions and exhibitions across India — dates, venues, lot counts and links — so you never miss a sale or show.
Create a listing — Create Description
Build a clean, catalogue-style description from simple fields, print 1.8″ coin-holder labels, or make a captioned photo plate. Handy when selling or cataloguing your own collection.

🪙 Know Your Coin
Learn to identify, grade and understand coins — guides from our experts
📷 Identify My Coin
Upload a photo of either side, or both — using both the obverse and reverse gives a more accurate result. Our model estimates the ruler and mint, and shows the typical price range from historical auction sales.
🔍 Which mint struck your coin? See the mint-mark guide →
⚠️ Please scan one coin at a time — if your photo has several coins, crop the box onto a single coin.
Results are AI estimates from image similarity to past auction lots; the price range is what coins of that ruler/mint have historically sold for, not a valuation of your specific coin (condition & rarity strongly affect value).
✂️ Tray Splitter
Photographed a whole tray at once? Split it into individual coins — obverse paired with reverse — in one step. Everything runs in your browser; your photos are never uploaded.
✍️ Create Professional Description
Build a clean, catalogue-style coin description. Fill in the fields and copy the result.
Tip: the description updates live as you type. Category and sub-category are drawn from the CoinSchool catalogue hierarchy.
🖼️ Create Coin Image
Have two photos (obverse & reverse)? We'll merge them side by side. Already have one combined photo with both sides? Use that directly. Either way you get a captioned, watermarked image.
