Show Me Your Reeeeeds!!

Okay I really will ask a question but first a little background. --I'm a newbie, just decided to look at my Daddy's old jar of wheaties in August and immediately got so obsessed I'm annoying all my people nonstop. But all along I've sworn to myself I just want to be a flipper, NOT a collector (no falling in REAL love!), AND swore I would not invest a penny of my own money--all finds would have to be free, either from cashier change, rolls or metal detecting (just found my first War Nickel in my own yard the other night!). But today I went to a jeweler for a repair and what do you know--they sold coins too. So it couldn't hurt to just LOOK, right?Well then I saw how cheap they had so many priced, tons of gem wheaties, proof and uncirculated mint coins snipped from sets, each priced from 10 cents to a dollar, even slabbed stuff for a few bucks. Long story short, I went nuts and got at least 50 coins for $55. But I WILL sell them, ha.
So here was what really got to me, when I got them home and got a closer look. It wasn't the luster and detail and flawlessness of the sides--I mean yeah, there are some stunners but they look like stunners you see in photos all the time. What literally grabbed me (or my fingers anyway) was the REEDING. Oh my god, I had no idea. I don't have to apply any pressure to hold them; it's like they grab my fingerprint ridges like insect feet. And how they look under the loupe--like actual machine cogs, and so STRONG looking! But they're not strong, are they? In fact they must be the first thing to 'go' in circulation. I've certainly found coins in rolls whose sides were as good as some of these coins, but this is definitely the first time I've experienced what uncirculated reeds are like. Oh!--and how you can see them sticking out from the coins just looking at them head-on, so cool!
I immediately wanted to see if I could photograph them, but this is apparently where my old camera shows its' limits. I've been thinking I'll get a usb microscope soon--do yall think that will capture reeding? Got any good reed photos to share?
Meanwhile here's my one of my favorite finds from today. Actually these were 3 separate finds; I know they look like they came from the same set, but they were in 3 different kinds of cases/flips and had all different handwriting on them. I will offer them together, if I ever get around to making ebay ads. The dime is so perfect I'm tempted to send it for grading, but uh again it's my resistance to investing money. I would get so mad at myself if I sprung for a slab and couldn't even recoup the cost.
