Best way to identify coins from my grandfather’s collection?

I just received a bunch of old coins from my family and have no idea what most of them are. Some look foreign, others American. Is there an easy way for beginners to identify them and get a rough idea of their worth without going to a coin shop every time?

I had the exact same problem last year when I inherited coins. Taking clear photos of both sides helps a lot, then using a mobile app that recognizes the coin instantly is the fastest method. It even gives you basic info on rarity and possible value. A simple coin value checker like this one can save you hours of manual searching and give you a good starting point before checking auction sites. coin value checker – I found it surprisingly accurate for everyday coins.
