The website title doesn't mention the 55x microscope which is a bit odd.
Is there really a 55x microscope, does it work and what is the largest area of coin that you can see with it, please ?

I am terrible at making decisions and still to this day am yet to pull the trigger on a loupe.
There is too many choices its overwhelming.

I did a fair amount of research on loupes a couple years ago and settled on a Belomo 10X They're made in Belarus, formerly part of the USSR. Apparently the plant where they are made used to make optics for their military. I love mine. Here's a bunch of listings on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/bhp/belomo-10x-loupe

Baush & Lomb Hastings Triplet, 10X. I have had mine for 35 years, it works out to a $1/year. Don't skimp, your eyes will thank you.
