    This has been answered in depth on this site. Do a search and you'll be reading for a week.

    There are so many variables involved to answer correctly. How old are you? How is your eyesight? Are you colorblind or near sighted. What kind of coins are you "hunting?" Tiny varieties as RPM's.

    I also have an SE head magnifier with a battery powered illuminator. I got it on Amazon, not expensive. IT has 3 magnification lenses and I can flip it up out of the way. Peace Roy

    I also bought a Plugable usb microscope on Amazon that works with my Samsung s8+ phone. Phone powers the microscope so I am examining coins everywhere. Very cool. It doesn't take an photo because Android os is goofy like that but to find errors or is great. $34. Peace Roy
