How to Use This Coin, Iowa Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Coin, Iowa. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Iowa or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Coin.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Coin, Iowa
Coin is a locality in Page County, Iowa, United States. It is a small community with a population of 176. The population density is 76.0 people per km². Coin is located at 40.6544°N, 95.2303°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. Coin is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 51636.Coin occupies a quiet expanse of southwestern Iowa, where the Tarkio River carves a sluggish, meandering path through the deep, loess-rich soil of the plains. It lies 53.3 miles southeast of Council Bluffs, IA (from Council Bluffs, IA: bearing 142°T), and is situated 11.7 miles west-southwest of Clarinda. The landscape here is defined by an immense, open horizon where the sky claims more territory than the earth, pressing down upon the endless grid of soybean and corn fields that stretch toward the faint, distant rise of Brickyard Hill. At dusk, the light loses its sharp, mid-day edge and turns a bruised, honeyed gold, catching the dust motes that drift above the furrowed rows and lending a temporary, fragile grandeur to the flat, working horizon.
Coin remains a place defined by the slow, seasonal pulse of agriculture, a heritage rooted in the industrious spirit of those who first broke this heavy prairie sod. While the town maintains a modest, unassuming character, its history is tethered to the rhythmic demands of the harvest and the quiet maintenance of local traditions, such as the upkeep of the peaceful grounds at Grove Cemetery. Life here moves with a steady, deliberate pace, far removed from the bustle of the state’s urban centers, favoring a grounded civility that persists even as the surrounding fields undergo the quiet, mechanical transformation of each passing year.

About This Coin Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Coin, Iowa. Coordinates: 40.654439, -95.23026. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.
Detailed location data for Coin includes the ZIP code (51636), telephone area code (641), county seat of Page County (Clarinda), and school district assignment (South Page Community School District).
Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
