The Coma region on a glass copy of the Palomar Sky Survey has been scanned with a microdensitometer. A method is described for obtaining the photometric parameters and positions of the images; 12,316 objects have been found. The repositioning of the scanner over the computed coordinates is satisfactory. AGK3 stars were considered to evaluate the plate constants and the precision. Comparison with Dressel and Condon's (1976) positions of galaxies gives a rms scatter consistent with the internal error of the published list.
