    Sorry. This is just an electrical "punch out" for an electrical box. That's my opinion.

    Coin snap is terrible. You'd have better luck and better advice from a forum such as CoinTalk.

    That need not be just your opinion. That's exactly what it is. It's not even a coin at all.

    This is a great demonstration of how utterly useless these coin apps are. I've seen some ridiculous examples in the ads for the apps, but this one is even more hilarious.

    It's as if this Coinsnap app identified this as a 1794 Liberty Cap large cent:

    (That actually wouldn't surprise me.)

    In answer to the title, yes, Coinsnap is wrong. Entirely, hilariously, awfully wrong.

    Don't waste your time with it.

    You'd have better luck and advice from a trained gerbil. Who was blind.

    Looks like a punch out from a metal electrical box as stated.

    Follow this guy's advice at 1:55 in the video about what to do with your "Netherlands East Indies 8 stuiver" piece. LOL



    Follow the advice above about what to do with your ridiculous Coinsnap app. Uninstall that nonsense. Stick around here on the forums instead.

    That's no coin or mint error of any kind.
    Uninstall coin snap ASAP!

    I'm sure this would come back as a Fugio Cent.

    Yes, it's wrong. Now, what is the question?

    AI is truly a wonder. Without its help, I never would have known about the thriving residential electric construction trade in the early-19th-century East Indies...

    Google is great, shrugs, AI in the wrong hands is something that can't happen. And all those that didn't get their first, will live in disgust until the next great race.
