In my case,it is my Canon CanoScan LiDE 25 flat-bed scanner.

 

Which brand & model of flat-bed scanner do you use for scanning your banknotes & coins?

I use an all in one of HP model PSC 1410. It's not good but its all I got. I prefer taking coin pics with my camera but its time consuming stuff.
I use an Epson flat-bed scanner. It cost about $200 USD and works very well.
I have a Brother MFC-9440cn that does great on notes, photos, basically anything flat. It doesn't do well at all on coins that are slabbed or in air-tites or other holders. As far as I can tell there is no way to adjust the focal range. The surface of the holder or whatever is in sharp focus, but the coin inside is not, so I use a camera for those.
Aidan,
These coins were scanned by an Epson V500 photo scanner. Again, it only cost $200. Judge for yourself. They are all in holders which does distort the image a bit.

Steve,
Those are good.

Some scanners scan coins,but they refuse to scan banknotes.

Using my CanoScan LiDE25 scanner & http://www.photoscape.org is very handy for me.
