The ebay auction for the one I got was 170157457029 I upgraded to the 5MP camera (MD900) for an extra $100. An older scope with the same camera ($399) would work just as well I believe. It comes with adapters for 30mm and 30.5mm eye pieces. I still need to play with the lighting a bit I think as the fluorescent does not seem to be enough or correct for coins. Something I probably should have upgraded as well. The company FORGOT :( to send the 20X eyepieces and the aux .5 objective - both very much needed! A phone call got them in the mail with no fuss so everything should be fine. I was finally able to look at nickel mint marks with the level of magnification that's really needed to look at RPM's and over marks :). Now if I ever leave there I am going to have to get my own!
