The daily guess-the-coin puzzle
One mystery coin a day, the same for every player. Guess any coin from the catalogue and the board compares it with the answer on year, design features, denomination, value and rarity, with arrows pointing the way, until every column turns green.
A daily puzzle for collectors and anyone who likes a Wordle-style guessing game, played with real coins from the catalogue
The answer is drawn from the Brilliant Uncirculated coins in the catalogue — from British 50p and £2 commemoratives to coins from around the world.
There is no limit on guesses. Your result is how many you needed, compared with everyone else who played that day.
Each guess is shown with its picture and compared on year, design features, denomination, value and rarity out of 10.
Solve it on consecutive days to build a streak, and see what share of the day’s players needed more guesses than you.
Every guess is a real coin with its picture, year and value, so each game shows you a few more coins you may not have met.
Play without signing up. An account keeps your streak and your results.
Wordle’s idea, with a coin in place of the word
Search by name, denomination or design feature and pick a coin. Any Brilliant Uncirculated coin in the catalogue can be a guess.
Each column turns green for a match or red for a miss. The features column turns orange when some, but not all, of the design features match.
On year, value and rarity an arrow shows whether the answer is higher or lower than your guess. Keep guessing until every column is green.
Green: a match
That column is the same as the answer.
Orange: part of the design matches
Only on the features column: some, but not all, of the design features are shared.
Red: a miss
That column does not match. On year, value and rarity it carries an arrow.
Arrows: higher or lower
On year, value and rarity, an up arrow means the answer is higher than your guess and a down arrow means it is lower.

Coindle sets one mystery coin a day, the same coin for every player. Each guess is a coin from the catalogue, and the board compares it with the answer across six columns: the picture, year, design features, denomination, value and rarity out of 10. Green means a match, orange means some of the design features match, and red means a miss; on year, value and rarity an arrow shows whether the answer is higher or lower. You have unlimited guesses, and your result is the number of guesses you needed, compared with other players that day.
Green means that column matches the answer. Orange appears on the features column when some, but not all, of the design features match. Red means a miss. On year, value and rarity, an up arrow means the answer is higher than your guess and a down arrow means it is lower.
The answer is drawn from the Brilliant Uncirculated coins in the Florin House catalogue — from British 50p and £2 commemoratives to coins from around the world.
No. You can play without one; signing in keeps your streak and your results.
