4.3" Coin Microscope - Aopick LCD Digital Microscope 1000X, 1080P USB Coin Magnifier for Error Coins with 8 Adjustable LED Lights, PC View, Compatible with MacOS Windows

I purchased the 4.3" Aopick LCD Digital Microscope for $27.99 in January 2025, and honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect—especially since similar models from other brands cost four to five times as much. To my surprise, this has become one of my favorite Amazon purchases!If you have kids (I do), you’ll love how this microscope brings everyday objects to life. Whether it's coins, paper money, collectibles, toys, or just about anything around the house, it lets you explore the tiniest details up close. It’s not only fun but can also be a great educational tool.Beyond the novelty, this microscope has proven incredibly useful in more practical situations. It’s been invaluable for troubleshooting and cleaning my airbrush—I can closely inspect the needle and ensure all the tiny components are properly cleaned. It also saved me a ton of frustration with my 3D printer (Creality Ender 3 S1 Pro). I thought the machine was defective, but zooming in on the first layers of my prints revealed that they weren’t squishing down properly. I even used the scope handheld while the printer was running to inspect the layers in real time.At its core, this is essentially a webcam with a zoom lens and a built-in light—but it delivers far more value than its price tag suggests. For under $30, I’ve gotten more than my money’s worth.

Works great with a very sharp image. Image capture abilitiy via micro SD card. The camera also can be connected to your laptop for larger images. Only Con - if using to view coins, you can not capture the entire coin.

As you can see great scope. Good clean readable everything is supper enlarged clear readable you can see if George Washington shaved his face. Has everything. You gotta get one of these. Not a bad price well in my budget. Thank You good job. Just one thing the locking screw was missing . Magnification good visibility good picture good easy to use good microscope quality great . Parts missing locking screw missing. Had to buy some screws it M6-1. 00 at your favorite wall store.

Gave this as a gift to my gal. She really likes this scope. The screen has a great display and clarity. The digital zoom really rocks. And the photos it takes are also great quality. It's controls are easy to use and intuitive. It is proportioned well from base size up.While she gave it no negatives in quality and functionality she did think a couple areas could use improving or tweaking to make a good product better. Her suggestions are as follows:1. At times she would like to see the whole coin under magnification so a wide angle function would be nice.2. The base upon which coins are placed for viewing is slick and allows the coins to slide if the coin scope or table it's on is bumped. Perhaps a rubber or a non slip surface to prevent slippage.3. The last item concerns the battery. It could last a little longer.Overall this is a very nice product that makes detailed coin viewing easy. My wife's uses it almost daily for coins. I've been know to use it for gemstones. Takes much clearer pics than my phone does. This is a perfect beginner coin scope and goes beyond expectations to meet the needs of someone beyond the beginning.I would have no problem recommending this coin scope to a friend or family.

This small machine makes my hobby more entertaining, it has to adjust the size and light, to take a photo of the image on the screen and brings to put micro SD memory. 100% recommended

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Neighbor had one I had used and liked.

Great quality, exceeded expectations. Great picture and zoom level, easy to produce clear image in the screen. Would recommend to all coin collectors for price.

There should be a way to split the rating system between one star for some aspects and multiple stars for other aspects. This digital microscope gets one, three, or five stars as follows:(*) The microscope gets One Star for:- The microscope came with a User Manual with print so small that it can only be read with a microscope.- The wording in the User Manual is not easy to follow. It may have been authored by someone for whom English is a second language.- Worst of all, the microscope did not come with installation software. I have spent several hours searching the internet and installing or updating various drivers and nothing works. I can see the image clearly on the microscope's screen but I cannot download it to my computer.If you have the right driver for my Windows10 laptop PC, I would like to hear about it.(***) The microscope gets Three Stars for:- The field of view is very small.It can show an image the size of a dime butit cuts off part of the image of a penny (U.S. currency).(*****) The microscope gets Five Stars for:- The image and detail are very good on the screen.- The magnification is better than expected.- Charging the battery from the USB port on my laptop works well.- The digital microscope is not expensive.
