What is a great source to identify multiple world coins quickly?

#1 Unread post by Soldico »

Picked up a couple dozen coins which I think are all from Egypt. Is there a reference site with photos in all their denominations and years minted on a single page? I am not expecting this lot to have any high value coins based off of what I paid for them, but a couple of the loose coins on the bottom look pretty cool.. I just started collecting coins, I have an online shop that I sell vintage items and I know where to look when I am looking up items for the store. I need some better sites for world coin references. Thank you :)

I have this app on my phone called COINOSCOPE. Pretty sure it was free and it is very useful in quickly identifying all coins. Probably has been discussed here before. But, just thought I would mention it.
