I'm no coin expert, but I do know that trying to grade my coins based off of your photos is probably as good as trying to play pin the tail on the donkey with blindfolded. You call this Photograde, I was thinking I could take a pic of my coins & it'd give me a rough guesstimate of it grade, this is should be called ComparePics&GradeUrOwn! What a let down! FYI I was trying to grade 1986 & 1987 SAE proof coins + 1992 Silver Proof Olympic Commemorative coins to no avail.

Convenient way to grade coins HOWEVER the quality of many of the photos and/or coins in the photos are pretty bad. A common issue is very bad toning of the silver coins. I have been collecting for 50 years and I can take much better quality photos of my coins with my smartphone. Please include better photos.

This is very good, it beats carrying the book around. Very accurate, but to the negative reviews, at least be a coin collector and know what you're talking about before you shoot it down.

This app is very helpful and I often use it to compare the difference in ANA grading and PCGS. I would like to see some photo-grades of weakly struck Morgan Dollars and What a fully struck 1921 High Relief Peace Dollar looks like as well as a photo-grade of the same issue. Otherwise, it's perfect.

For dealers and collectors alike, this can help make the difference between making a good or bad final decision on whether or not to buy a coin. Can also make the difference between losing or making money. Bravo to PCGS for the most useful, professional, and beneficial coin app with the most beautiful and most high quality photos on Android, bar none. Thank You!
