The_Duke Pillar of the Community United States 1746 Posts	Posted 09/27/2012 11:36 am I use a Hastings 10x triplet (have had it for over 35 years), a cheap 2x w/ 4x insert, and always carry a 2 lens folding magnifier (I think B&L) in my laptop bag. Oh, by the way, the Hastings is the best, by far. Edited by The_Duke 09/27/2012 11:37 am Report this Post to the Staff
D0ubl3Eagle Pillar of the Community United States 5854 Posts	Posted 09/27/2012 10:41 pm Most of the time I use a Belomo 7x, occasionally a cheap 10x, and very rarely a H.E. Harris 16x. I find that the 16x must be held very close to the coin to remain in focus but that makes it a challenge to get enough light on the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
