Looks like we're going to be getting a new electronic photomicroscope here at work. I was just playing with the newest instrument from Zeiss....man oh man....this thing is just AWESOME. It will be super for taking closeups of coins.

Zeiss, best of the best. Once I nearly bought a Zeiss rifle scope, but ended up getting a Leupold. Water under the bridge now...

Zeiss optics are top quality stuff. I have a couple scopes around the lab with Zeiss lenses. Unfortunately, they are inverted microscopes so no good for coins

It would be difficult to understand the actual advantages of that microscope, due to just a verbal description, so I would suggest you send it to me for approval. If this is impractical, please let me know where I can bring my coins for examinations.
I love that little laughing thing.

Just paypal me $20000 and I'll get it out to you! LOL

It's not actually ours yet. We just had a rep come in and demo the system. He's coming back soon to demo a higher end one for us. The one he bought in is not good enough for our needs.....I can't wait to play with the next one too!
