USB Microscope for coin pictures

[Mtldealer]

I am looking for a microscope USB camera to take close ups of coins. I saw a brand called Dinoscope. It's really expensive, $400+. Does anyone have any recommendations for a cheaper option? Any and all help is appreciated.

I have one from Shaper Image several years ago that is a usb microscope camera. Looking now, they have a different one for $80.

Check out the big box electronic stores. They have them starting around $80. Good luck.............

I though there were some for a fraction of that price that worked pretty good... There was a thread a few months ago... Maybe $20-$25? .. I will look
