    I have read that I need a Cherrypicker's Guide, but there are a lot of them and I mostly search Lincoln Cents so I was wonering which one I needed, and also how strong a loop should I use to look at htese coins? I have 10X but i still don't see the detail that some show in picture and if you have to look through a microscope is it realy Cherry Picking or nitpicking?

    10x for most but you must have a 20x for die markers.

    Buy the best there is for a clear not distorted focus.

    Buy a Hasting Triplet which is not a brand but a type of loop. It has 3 lens that are glued together that correct the difficencies of each other. I use a 10x which is all I need.
