Took me a while to identify but I think I got it right.
I was hoping for a new variety but after seeing this many die markers it wasn't happening.

EDIT: Forgot.. thanks CoinHunter27 and Rookie2018

I use he Opti-TekScope Model OT-HD usb Microscope.

When space allows, I bounce light off glass.. it is called axial lighting:

Can not use this method to take close ups because there is not enough space between the scope and the coin.
Also, as you can see I use alternate lighting. I keep the 8 LEDs on the scope turned off.

The light angle could be improved. More it a little closer to point it downwards a bit more. the will light the images better.

If the light is too bright you might try bond paper to reduce the glare diffusing a bit. I usually use it not so close to the bulb. You don't want it to catch fire:

But if you bulb is not hot, then that might not be an issue.
