i am a roman coin collector, would this microscope be useful for old coins? some of my coins need more magnification other than my 5x handheld divice

I bought this scope for basically the same purpose (plus other things). I love this scope, it is clear, nicely made, plenty of light both for top viewing and underneath. Has all the magnification that I need. The optics are surprisingly good at this price point, its not a Nikon or Zeiss, but is more than good enough to look at coins or insects.

What type of current does this require? Will it with outside the US?

It uses U.S. Standard 120 volt. I would think that you can get an adapter for use outside the United States. There is a tag on the power supply housing that says primary 115 volt secondary 12 volt 10 watt. If you are good with electronics you could add a jack to give it 12 volts after the rectifiers. Hope this helps.

How do you change from one magnification to another since there is no zoom. Do you have to switch out lenses?

Hold onto the gray part below eye pieces and give the black part under it (above the stage) a twist to switch between 2x and 4x. So no need to switch eye pieces (though you can if buy other magnifications; the ones provided are 10x).

Does this come with everything it needs to use out of the box? Or do I need to purchase extras? Thanks!

Everything I needed to set up and operate the scope was in the box plus two extra eyepieces to adjust magnification. Slides and slide covers for specimens need to be purchased extra.
