You have to be more specific, What is your app goal? do you care if it is a coins or pills or you just want to recognize this objects in image that include more objects?

do you know the type of the coins and pills? or is it a unknown type?

its unknown type (coin means count circle) and (pills means capsules).

To find and count coins you can start with a derivative filter to remove the background and find the edges after it you can fill the contour(use black and white image), then count the objects (look at Component labeling algorithms), if it is possible that the coins are find near to each other you have to use"Erosion" (shrinking) algorithm. This is my suggest, I didn't try it. but I believe that this is a direction. You can look at this guide : http://www.cs.rutgers.edu/~elgammal/classes/cs334/BinaryImageAnalysis.pdf

This is a classical detection problem. OpenCV has many different detector that you could use, see for example the Haar cascade classifier, latent SVM, Histogram of Oriented Gradients, or Bag of Words approaches.

All these solutions imply to train your own model, with a number of positive and negative samples. As your detections are independent, you could train your system independently. You could find many tutorials/research papers/samples on Google, and you probably need some (basic) knowledge on object detection/recognition.

any idea about counting the object using opencv android (like capsules and coin)

If you are able to detect every object (bounding box for each of them) you already have your number of objects or I miss something?
