This thing has a learning curve. Grabbed a few coins and this is the first. Advice appreciated.

DigiMicro from Amazon. Was under 30. I bought it and some kcups to qualify for free shipping. Took me a while to figure it out, and I read some advice over at the photography forum.

Weezer, what is the largest diameter it will take and can you take pics of a new coin with full luster?

I don't about the diameter, let me look and get back to you. And yes I will take a few pictures of a recent ASE.

Those look great Weezer. That's the same microscope I used and I couldn't get it to work very well. How did you do the zooming? Also, how did you get the whole coin in view? One other question...are you on a Mac or Windows computer?

Thanks.

I propped it up on a bunch of big thick books, tips from members here. It gets the whole coin in view. I'm on a windows. Good luck!
