<p>[QUOTE="Cloudsweeper99, post: 690904, member: 3011"]Of course it's the hardware, the word "computer" being too restrictive. 20 years ago the photoelectric digital sensors and optics probably didn't exist or were not advanced enough to provide the input from the target coin that the software needs, and the hardware wasn't fast enough to process the inputs. You are correct that the software and hardware haven't been designed specifically for this application -- but the technology is advanced enough to do so. There just isn't enough money in coin grading to justify the R&D.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
