General Questions
What is CoinVault Pro?
CoinVault Pro is a comprehensive AI-powered coin recognition and collection management platform. It helps collectors identify coins instantly, organize their collections digitally, connect with other collectors, and trade coins safely in our marketplace.
Is CoinVault Pro free to use?
Yes! We offer a free plan that includes 10 coin recognitions per day, up to 3 collections, basic marketplace access, and limited social features. Premium plans unlock unlimited recognitions, advanced features, and priority support.
How accurate is the AI coin recognition?
Our advanced AI system achieves 95%+ accuracy on common coins and 85%+ accuracy on rare coins. We use multiple AI providers including Google Gemini, TensorFlow, and rule-based systems to ensure the highest accuracy possible.
What devices does CoinVault Pro support?
CoinVault Pro works on iOS 14+, Android 8+, and modern web browsers. The app synchronizes across all your devices automatically, so you can access your collections anywhere.
AI Recognition & Technology
What types of coins can CoinVault Pro recognize?
Our AI can identify coins from 195+ countries, spanning ancient to modern times. This includes circulation coins, commemoratives, ancient coins, world coins, US coins, tokens, and even some medals. We're constantly expanding our database.
How do I get the best recognition results?
For optimal results: use good lighting (natural light preferred), place coins on a contrasting background, ensure the coin fills most of the frame, hold the camera steady, avoid shadows and reflections, and capture both sides if possible.
What if my coin isn't recognized correctly?
You can manually correct the identification and provide feedback to improve our AI. Very rare coins, damaged coins, or coins with poor photo quality may be challenging to recognize. You can also consult our expert community for help.
How does the multi-AI system work?
We combine Google Gemini AI, TensorFlow models, and rule-based systems. If one system is uncertain, others provide backup identification. This multi-layered approach ensures maximum accuracy and reliability.
Collections & Organization
How many coins can I add to my collection?
Free users can create up to 3 collections, Premium users up to 50, and Pro and Dealer users have effectively unlimited collections. Each coin entry can include multiple photos, detailed notes, condition grading, and purchase information.
Can I import my existing collection data?
Yes! We support CSV file imports and can help migrate data from other collection apps. Contact our support team for assistance with bulk imports or data migration.
How are coin values calculated?
We aggregate pricing data from multiple sources including recent auction results, dealer catalogs, market trends, and numismatic databases. Values are updated regularly and consider coin condition and rarity.
Can I make my collections private?
Absolutely! You have full control over collection privacy. You can make collections public to share with the community, keep them private for personal use, or share with specific friends and family members.
Trading & Marketplace
Is trading safe on CoinVault Pro?
Yes! We use secure escrow services, verify user identities, maintain detailed transaction histories, and have a robust feedback system. All payments are processed through secure, encrypted channels with buyer and seller protection.
What fees do you charge for trading?
Marketplace commission depends on your plan: 7% on Free, 5% on Premium, 3% on Pro and 0% on Dealer. Every sale is protected by escrow and a dispute-resolution process, and higher tiers pay progressively lower fees.
How do auctions work?
Sellers can list coins as auctions with starting prices and duration (1-10 days). Buyers can place bids, set maximum amounts for automatic bidding, and receive notifications when outbid. The highest bidder when the auction ends wins the item.
What if there's a problem with my transaction?
Use the 'Report Issue' feature immediately or contact support. We investigate all disputes, hold funds in escrow until resolution, and have policies to protect both buyers and sellers. Our team mediates disputes fairly.
Social Features & Community
How do I connect with other collectors?
Follow collectors with similar interests, browse public collections, participate in discussion forums, join coin-specific groups, share your new acquisitions, and engage with posts through likes and comments.
Can I get expert opinions on my coins?
Yes! Our platform includes verified numismatic experts who can provide professional opinions. Premium users get priority access to expert consultations and can submit coins for authentication advice.
How does the social feed work?
Your feed shows updates from collectors you follow, trending posts from the community, educational content, new coin discoveries, and personalized recommendations based on your interests and collection themes.
Are there collecting groups or clubs?
Yes! Join groups focused on specific coin types (ancient coins, world coins, US coins), collecting themes, regional collecting clubs, or expertise levels. Groups feature discussions, trading opportunities, and educational content.

How does the XP and leveling system work?
Earn XP through various activities: coin recognition (10-50 XP), adding coins to collections (25 XP), completing trades (100 XP), social interactions (5-15 XP), and daily check-ins (20 XP). Higher levels unlock new features and recognition.
What types of achievements are available?
Achievements span multiple categories: Recognition (first coin, accuracy streaks), Collections (milestones, complete sets), Trading (successful sales, purchases), Social (popular posts, helpful comments), and Special (seasonal events, rare finds).
Do achievements provide real benefits?
Yes! Achievements unlock profile badges, provide XP bonuses, grant access to exclusive features, offer marketplace benefits (reduced fees, priority listings), and showcase your expertise to the community.
Can I see leaderboards?
Yes! View leaderboards for XP, collection value, recognition accuracy, trading success, and community contributions. Leaderboards are available for different timeframes (weekly, monthly, all-time) and categories.

Can I enable two-factor authentication?
Yes! We strongly recommend enabling 2FA for account security. Use authenticator apps, SMS codes, or hardware keys. This adds an extra layer of protection for your account and collection data.
What happens to my data if I delete my account?
You can download all your data before deletion. After account deletion, personal information is permanently removed while anonymized usage data may be retained for platform improvement. Collection data is completely deleted.
