Dino-Lite AM411T USB Digital Microscope Camera
I paid $350 for the Microscope camera and mini tripod.
First impressions, WOW this critter is amazing for VERY close up work. But if you want to photograph the whole coin you better be ready to experiment.
The Controls, plenty of adjustments, more than most people will ever need.

Here are some photos of a 2007
Lincoln Cent. The only thing that is changed throughout the photos is the type of lighting. No Photoshop edditing was done other than cropping the image.
LED Light Emitting Diode (the unit has them built in, you can turn them on and off) I do not like the type of light they produce.

Incadescent Lights. I do not like them for this camera

Halogen Lights. I do not like them for this camera

Florescent Lights. Seem to work best for this camera

Florescent & LED. Great detail but you loose true color

Incendescent & Florescent
