can you use to view coins or stamps

Yes you could look at coins but it'll be a little darker unless you have some good lighting above, since the only light on the scope is underneath. I've used it to look at things like coins though. It works!

Sure will John, I have used it on dimes, quarters and half dollars. Makes a clean punch and is nice to have the clear top to see exactly where to position the coin.

Largely no, or not without a lot of trouble. The scale is too small, and the display has a very narrow viewable angle. You can finagle a view, as the other answers attest, but you will be annoyed every time that it's so hard to read.

No they will not. Different sizes. With a coin operating machine it's best to use it as a bank. $250.00 gets you 1000 coins. When you run out open the machine and transfer coins back to front tray. And play some more. We do the same with our Japanese token machines. Have fun.

I have not used it on usps items. We are a member based facility and use it for scanning in members.

Yes you can. Just dump the money in the top, and it will fill up the removable coin holders and instead of wrapping, just dump them out. :) I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!!!

Those plastic ends on the arms have about 1 1/4 inch wide circles that are a coins depth. I can send pics if you like.

Yes you put in real money. If its paper money you have to punch it on the keypad. It does recognize pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters though.

you can use manually add money. If you need to manually press "minus" when you take a few coins out

Yes. Quarters, nickels, pennies, dimes... whatever size coin you feel like using.

Yes, it takes pretty good images of stamps, I just tried it on a current stamp from the post office. As far as saving a digital copy, I've been using the $20 computer screen capture program from www.faststone.org "FastStone Capture 8.0" that works very well to capture anything on your PC monitor, and save it to a file. This venue doesn't allow me to include a sample image from the digital microscope though. I've got a Canon SX20IS that has extreme close up capabilities. This microscope does a much better job at it. The microscope also has a "Ring" of LED's that surround the lense for even illumination of your target.

Probably, but I am no jeweler so I wouldn't know what to look for. I have looked at a few diamond rings with it and it shows a lot of detail that you can not see with the naked eye. I love looking at my coins with it.

If you are into numasmatics, I think you need to find another option. The scope does provide detail but the quality may not be something you are interested in. Overall, if you are SERIOUSLY into coins, I would suggest something else. Otherwise, it is okay for the household amateur (which I am).

Yes ,yes,yes. Also postage stamps can be printed (from USPS ,must pay only for actual postage fees) Many fonts available ,some symbols,and you can print photos (B+W only). Ive even printed artwork from a Draw program. Images however are high contrast.

This will work perfect. You simply increase the distance between the object and the lens until your stamp or coin fills the whole screen (or whatever portion you desire). It is perfect for making a full screen sized stamp or coin. With the lens touching a stamp, for example, you could see the paper fibers individually.. pull them apart and it will in effect, zoom out.

no you can not. you could probably look at them but this really doesn't magnify very much and the optics are not great. it's more for playing.
