Bought hoping I could see minting errors on coins so far so good quick easy set up, hooked up to my portable battery and I viewed coins for 5 minutes. It's true that you can't see the whole coin even if you adjust the height of the stand, but that's not a problem for me. The backlight on this product works well enough to detect coin defects and possible coin errors. I think if the product had a blue light you would get a different contrast, which as I've noted can be a big help (coins accumulate dirt and debris and can wear out a lot due to circulation), but mine Work is in Hold the coin with tweezers and tip it back and forth. One thing to note is the clear plastic dust cover, which must be removed to get a clear picture of the object being viewed and then replaced when not in use. The real test, of course, is the lifespan of the product. It's almost entirely plastic and I've only been using it for 3 days but I'm hoping that with a little care I'll take care of it and enjoy it for years to come.
