I've owned one of these in the past (without the stand) and the stand is completely necessary, else the OEM stand it comes with is completely useless

Works well with coins and paper money. Thought it'd share since the lighthouse equivalent is a couple hundred dollars. Obviously dont expect the exact same quality but see my attached samples from few years ago. Clear enough for my needs

I used a similar one without the stand for over 10 years before it died. Bought one with a stand 2 years ago for $30 (almost the same as yours), and it works great for coins and everything else that's small. Everyone should have one.

Hey there, Wizard1.

I have a question, more like a request. Can you post coin picture examples from your digital microscope, please?

Canadian coin examples from pre 1936 would be great, thank you. If not any coin pic would be great too.

The digital microscope I have now, does not have a stationary rigid stand, but a flexible arm, and it does not give me the picture quality I want.

Thanks again. Potential future purchase.

I have one like that. Thing lags like crazy when I put a coin underneath it to view. Always having to restart the program. Also, the photo option doesn't seem to be working on it or I'm just doing something wrong.
