Message:: [QUOTE="Inspector43, post: 4456139, member: 89213"]I am on my third USB Scope. The first one was perfect but it stopped working and it has been discontinued. My second one was by AMScope and it wouldn't allow you too look at the full coin if it was bigger than a penny. The one I have now allows bigger coins and good magnification and resolution. It is called MUSTCAM. It takes good photos and allows you to look at bigger coins in their entirety. The stand that it is mounted on is adjustable but not with a ratchet. You have to loosen it, raise it and then retighten it. This is very clumsy. I mounted it to one of my old stands with a ratchet height control. The other issue is that the coins appear elongated or distorted a bit. I think this can be fixed using the "Calibration" feature. But, I'm not sure and haven't got that far yet. If you get one with too much magnification you will have trouble seeing the entire coin. Look at the reviews and search for those that are specifically stated as good for coins. Make sure the height adjustment is on a ratchet. Then read the reviews and the Q&A. Following is are photos from my new one: [ATTACH=full]1111457[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1111458[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
