Removing the background of a picture is now very simple and fast
First, you will go to
this site , then click on "Open image" as in the following photo:
Once this is done, all you have to do is save your image (it will be saved in your Downloads folder by default)
You will end up with a photo in PNG format stripped of its background:
For a picture which is difficult to crop by my classic means (Paint, μsoft Picture manager, white balance), the result is extraordinary

Hm doesn't seem to work anything more complex then simple high contrast backgrounds.
I personally prefer to use the program I am using all the time anyway be it photshop, gimp or like many on Numista photoscape which also have a magi-wand function.
An example for PhotScape X (free)
But if this site animates crop lazy members to start cropping more power to them.

Okay the error was probably from my VPN which I won't turn off just for cropping
Here is the English language link to the site

Hopefully this solution will be encouraged and used to the maximum.
I know a referee who will be very relieved, both for him and for the defaulters.

Thank you so much for that Frenchy!
I've a lot of old irregular coins which I usually clip on Gimp but it takes such a time. Now this - it seems almost too good to be true.

The first step is always to think about where you take the photo

This site is now asking me for payment to use the background removal--looks like only 2 saves per day.
Are there any other great sites still for free? I especially liked this site because of the auto-crop function.

Yes, same problem.
When you reach the limit close the private mode browser then open it again and continue.

You can also upload e.g. 10 or more photos, cropp it and download all together (then unzip folder) and it's counted as one download only.

THIS one has worked quite well but I've used stuff like this only when I didn't have access to my PC and my photo editing software.

Yes, that's true unfortunatelly. The one linked by Idolenz works well but only one photo at once can be edited.
I used this AI tools almost only for 7-sided coins. For round coins, there are better tools, also online.

I gave someone a link to pixlr a few days ago. oops. 😏 Sad it stopped working. I used it many times.
Since then I have downloaded Photoscape. It has rotate and crop round, but not background remover.
so good for coins. but less so for sporting events, or pets.

It might be wise to open a thread dedicated to all these tools.

Pixlr.com has changed a bit.
Choose ultra-high resolution, then AI tools, and remove the background.
For retouching, for example, to remove the center, select the scissors tool and then the magic eraser.
An interesting new feature: the ability to save as a high-definition JPG rather than a PNG, which would then need to be converted.
Three images are allowed per day, but this limit is removed if you are browsing in private mode …
For perfectly round and plain coins, you can use GIMP, which is very simple and easy to use.
