I was wondering: Does anyone have a scanner that they recommend that is adept at scanning the reverse of Soviet screwback awards?

I used to own a Canon CanoScan that did a beautiful job of scanning, but the platen was broken during a move. A similar fate (the platen clouded) befell my replacement Canon. I then moved on to an HP which did a horrific job of scanning screwback awards, so I replaced that with an Epson Perfection 4180 Photo. Unfortunately, this latter scanner also does a pretty terrible job of scanning screwback awards. :banghead Not being made of money, I can't waste too much more money buying random scanners and trying them out. :rant:

For all of you with scanners, who out there has one that is usable for scanning the reverses of screwback awards, without blurring out anything but the end of the screw?

Thanks in advance for your recommendations...
