Trigger works but i the statement code is not doing what it should.

I have this game i am working on. And i am having a Player prefab that is the one the user controlling. I have coins that i want the Player to collect them when he is passing by them. using UnityEngine; using System.Collections;

 public class PickUpCoin : MonoBehaviour
 {
 
     // Use this for initialization
     void Start()
     {
 
     }
 
     // Update is called once per frame
     void Update()
     {
 
     }
 
     void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other)
     {
         Debug.Log("collision name = " + other.gameObject.name);// i track if the collision values are correct.And they are.
         if (other.gameObject.CompareTag("Player")) {
             Destroy(gameObject);
         }
     }
 }

The thing is that the Player tag is Player and when i am passing by it the debug correctly says that they actually collided. The coin has "Is Triggered" checked and also a circleColider2D. What basically i believe it's happening is that my object is not destroyed. I am confused. I watched all the tutorials in the site that say about collecting coins and destroying the object. i cant trace the error here. I would greatly appreciate your suggestions. Thank you :D
