I could not agree more. I hate them for the most part but I have one and it is fine. THe key is having the extension pole so you can see the entire coin at one time. This particular one looks very nice and it has a $50 coupon? Wow.. nice. Thanks Daniel.
You made me soo happy with this video. Been watching you for a year, and last year did purchased a microscope. Being a Coin noob. Elikliv EDM201 Max HDMI Digital Microscope with 7" IPS Screen - 1300X Coin Soldering Microscope with 25MP Sensor, Bottom Transmitted Light, View Entire Coin, TV/Windows/Mac Compatible Yours is much nicer, but so happy I got close last year. Santa will not upgrade mine😢. But I have found amazing coins I want to post on the forum. Thank you for everything thing you do for us!
I got a Hayve 4K 48MP Digital Microscope $169.99 it also connects to my 4K smart TV, and it looks almost exactly the same as the one you have from Amazon.
Upon closer examination I've noticed that the Hayve 4K microscope despite being labeled as such appears to deliver a 2K video quality. In comparison, the EM4K genuinely provides a 4K video experience, this variance is quite significant
I use this to take pictures of coins as the video is useless in 2k but the photos are 4k perfect for eBay with the already black background with a black wireless charging pad from Onn for staging photos on as the base is aluminum
After comparing, go for the same microscope as Daniel's Hayve 7 inch + 2k + 48MP +1500x +unknow sensor Elikliv 8 inch +4K +52MP +2000x+ sony sensor I don't know, it's really nice to see the product on the video, Elikliv seems have a lot of new functions, I would give it a try to see how it performs anyway thanks for comment
I have one of these, and I definitely use it because of my eyesight. Plus it's steady...I hate it when my hands shake at times and have difficulty seeing any potential errors and such...its a very nice scope, but I recommend placing the coin on something soft as to not cause it to get scratches... It has 2 different areas for the plug. One is for the lights and the other is to charge the scope...
Good video, Daniel, I have a microscope like you. I also set up before I read the manual. After a few tryouts and not getting the results that I thought should have been happening, I shut it off and read the manual. After reading the manual a few times, l relaxed and turned in back on and started to go through step by step and familiar myself with each feature of the machine, and it was worth the time and effort. It probably saved me so much time and effort. Now, it feels like I have all the time to check out all of my coins. Thanks again, Daniel, for all you do. Have a good day.
I think a big problem with people "seeing things that aren't there" with scopes is that they're using the wrong kind. Scopes like this offer a pretty two dimensional look (besides the fact that it's digital display). I'm not trying to ding this product, it looks fantastic for 250 bucks. However when viewing coins under a scope you really want a stereo microscope for both eyes. Unlike a normal microscope the range from the lense is much greater so you can hold and manipulate the coin while you look. Also unlike a normal scope it will provide a more three dimensional look to the object. Makes it a lot easier to understand what you're seeing. Whats raised, whats incuse... whatnot. Also nothing beats actually looking at the coin through quality glass. A huge reason for a good scope is grading heavily toned coins. My Jumbo Doublet 10x and a 100w bulb is the go-to almost every time, but once in a while it's just not enough. If you NEED a scope, don't use a digital display, look through glass. If you WANT a scope for fun and to just appreciate your coins, I can see this being an excellent choice. Remarkable looking quality for the price!
I actually sought this video out for a second time, just remembering I need to buy that book, save SO much time smh😂❤️ i love it. Thank you Daniel, keep up the hard work!
I use an inexpensive Plugable for now. The lighting is my biggest complaint. I use a flashlight to get a good image. Something like this will be my next step up.
I don't know why so many coin searchers waste their time to look for errors or new die varieties. The chances of finding it is miniscule. The chances of finding anything of value in pocket change is close to zero. Thanks for the heads up on this microscope. It seems to a new model. I might order it because my eyes aren't as good as when I was a kid. It's hard for me to look through a magnifier. Plus you are right that the scope like a macro lens will pick up the minor defects on the surface of a coin.
Thanks for the video. I've got a similar (but much cheaper) microscope, I use it to take photos of my coins. I wish more coin sellers would use them too, a blurry far-away tiny picture of a coin from someone's cell phone camera is all too common. I don't buy coins from vendors that post crappy photos, I've found that sometimes the photo is blurry to hide defects in the coin; I hope that's accidental, but I wonder. As far as finding pie-in-the-sky riches, I'm amused by looking at many eBay coins for sale, and finding huge differences in the prices of very similar coins; some of those sellers are sure hoping a sucker comes along!
I use a microscope with led screen and yes like you said, I found marks on coins and I had to sit back And think of that can’t be a mint error. And just like u said, it’s just a circulated mark. Thanks again Daniel
If you are super into looking at coins close up, look into getting a stereo microscope, the kind with dual eyepieces, no digital display. You get a much more 3D image. Million times better for coins. The ones with one eyepiece or digital display cause more confusion than they solve.
Hey 4k guy. lol Had to say it... Thanks Daniel ! I've been thinking about a better scope..Mine wont pull back far enough for a full coin image and the resolution isnt a nice high res. Yea, i've done all the usual stuff but the current scope is kind of a pain. Its done well for me over all though. When I search fast through rolls or something, I flash through them, look n flip, look n flip..speed is key. A full coin picture would make it easier. Not to get anyone aghast but I really don't like loops. I do have a lighted loop and it does well on the run but for a normal loop, just not my style. Kind of like Greysheet, I like thew web site or phone app but for the book, I never use it. I could have used a better cam though the other day...even the lighted loop wasn't helpful..I was looking for the doubled ear on a Morgan. This cam would make those kinds of things easier. Hey, it might have been the coin was too worn too...lol Thanks again !!
Thanks Daniel for another important video. There's no question in my mind about this new tool. I'm getting one. Actually, for the money, this is quite reasonable. Can't thank you enough, pal.
Like any tool, you need to learn how the tool works to use it to the best effect. THEN learn how to use it for the application you are going to be using that TOOL for. If you understand how the tool works it makes it easier to understand what you are trying to get from that tool. Nice tool Daniel.
Thank you Daniel. I have used the loop as you recommend but as I am getting up there in age I am finding it more difficult to see using the loop. I have tried my magnifier on my iPhone but it shakes so badly. I’m going to look at this device. I hope you have a credit for advertising 😎
I can't afford that I only use a microscope to show coins up close to do videos to show others but I don't go into errors or variety I'm still a newbie
I’m currently very new to coin hunting and was planning on purchasing the $90 1000x microscope from the same company. My main goal is just variety hunting Pennies for my collection as that’s what intrigues me currently. I currently only have variety vista as a view point but some of the things on there seem so small or minuscule that I was concerned a loupe might not cut it. Is there a specific loupe you would recommend? Or just aim for a 10x like you mentioned? Either way, thanks! Probably just saved me about 2 boxes of pennies.
You can get away with some crazy good quality out of an old macro lens and a decent DSLR. you could probably get both lens and body like 7 years old for maybe 5-600 bucks and achieve excellent photography and video. Tripod definitely needed though.
Dan, where can I go on your site to find a magnifier for my camera on my phone for close up pictures of coins? Also, where do you login at on your site? (Maybe a dumb?)
I'm sorry I didn't mean to sound rude , I reread what I wrote , I meant I'm that guy that bought a microscope , and wow I seen a lot that I need to learn I watch a lot of your videos I've learned a lot from them and sites that you go on I inherited a coin collection and turned me into a coin roll hunter ( again I'm sorry what I wrote and meant to say just didn't come out right ) I am one of the people that really appreciates your videos @@CoinHELPu
I got one last year, best gift I ever gave myself. Details are great and I was also able to get a stubborn splinter out of my finger.
I could not agree more. I hate them for the most part but I have one and it is fine. THe key is having the extension pole so you can see the entire coin at one time. This particular one looks very nice and it has a $50 coupon? Wow.. nice. Thanks Daniel.
i have 2 32-S quarters that i would like to see if the s was put on or if it's genuine.

I bought this yesterday and just received it today when I saw your video

I use mine to search for Morgan VAMs
Omg what I could see with that !!!!! my little cheep one is worn out .....love it !!!
That product is pretty cool. 👍

I love this. Might get one in the future. Ty sir.
As soon as I saw your video with the spotty Morgan, I was thinking of ask you what this microscope was
That's exactly what I did. Lol
Thank you Daniel. I have used the loop as you recommend but as I am getting up there in age I am finding it more difficult to see using the loop. I have tried my magnifier on my iPhone but it shakes so badly. I’m going to look at this device. I hope you have a credit for advertising 😎
You don’t hold your phone, lay it on something like a book or books.
Also!!... I use a soft pad to place my coins on to slide around so it's not scratched on the metal place!
The flat metal cannot scratch the coin.
Very good review. I have never owned a microscope, but I like it.👍
I bought this already, super product!!
I ordered that from Walmart a couple months ago, but all the parts weren’t in it so had to send it back
It’s amazing the quality and features for the low price. Technology is advancing
I can't afford that I only use a microscope to show coins up close to do videos to show others but I don't go into errors or variety I'm still a newbie
Really an amazing tool. Fantastic images. For me though it's to high tech. I've gotten by so far with a 10x loop, I'll stick with it.
Thanks Daniel ...you know I am from Pakistan :) Another side of the world watching your videos , Thanks my Name is Amer

I like one that allows me to see cellular inperfections in the metal itself. 😅😅😅
Coin alloys don't have cells, they're crystalline and inorganic.
@CoinHELPu Yes, obviously, i was jokingly tossing a sidearm dig to those who buy the 100x microscopes and such unneeded gadgets.
Awesome video
What equipment do you normally use to produce your closeup videos of coins?
You can get away with some crazy good quality out of an old macro lens and a decent DSLR. you could probably get both lens and body like 7 years old for maybe 5-600 bucks and achieve excellent photography and video. Tripod definitely needed though.
Lol Daniel you have 10 missed calls and a new voicemail 😂
Daniel, thanks again, need a good microscope
Dan, where can I go on your site to find a magnifier for my camera on my phone for close up pictures of coins? Also, where do you login at on your site? (Maybe a dumb?)
I don’t sell those on my website currently. I can’t explain where to log in, click the link and register. The link is in the video description.

Hello Podna !
you hate microscopes, they must have paid you a bundle.
I’ve never once said I hate microscopes and they didn’t pay me anything. If you watched my video you would have known that.
Cool but way to Bulky....
