Sent to wrong coin - what happens?

[zalando95]

Hello,
I am an idiot, I know.
I by mistake sent coins to an wrong coin.
Example: You have 150 ABC. Now you send them to a wallet of the ABD coin.
Yes as I said I am an idiot. I did this.

Does somebody of you know what will now happen?
I mean are the coins now completely gone or is there a chance to get them back?
Thank you for every help.

If two coins have the same address generation system then their private keys are the same.

So if you sent coinX to a coinY address then you should use your coinY private key and import that address to coinX - if you can.

If you don't know the private key for coinY (ABD in your example) then you're out of luck.

If for some reason you have the private key but it is being refused, you will have to write code to convert to the correct version.
