Numismatics App

[Doctor Steuss]

I finally took the plung into the 21st century, and got me a smart phone (damned thing is smarter than me). As I've been toying with it, I thought to myself how nice it would be to have a kind of Red Book, or maybe Greysheet type thing on my phone, that was updated fairly consistently.

Does anyone know if such an App exists? They seem to have them for just about everything else imaginable.

Thanks (and my apologies if this has been covered before... "app" didn't pull up any results for me with the forum search function).

not an app, but...

I have a bunch of bookmarks in my browser for this purpose. Numismedia, Coinsandcanada, coinflation, etc.

I have one I rarely use called CoinHELP! or U.S. Coin Identifier. It has specs (diam, metal content, weight) which is nice if I want to double check the weight of something I don't handle very often. It also has a few values (G, EF, AU, MS) they're close on retail, don't think it gets updated very often though.

Not for the beginning collector or numismatist. Three years old might like the colors. That is all there is to this over priced app.

3:Notes & Coins 101, the money encyclopedia http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/notes-coins-101-money-encyclopedia/id391033815?mt=8 This app contains all the current banknotes and coins of every country/land around the world. We like this one.
