I can't see the dates on small cents as well as I used to. I would like to finish sorting the pile of copper I have lying around the house (~10K coins to go??). Any good desktop lights/magnifying glass combos? I see a bunch on ebay and amazon. I was thinking in the $100 range. My handheld loop works well enough but I'm noting to raise that main coins to my eye.
how about a usb microscope so u can look at the coins on ur computer screen, i had same problem an staring one eyed thru the loupe was making it worse, now i look at coins on the screen as in pics below, lot better for roll searching an sorting cents...i got one of the cheaper scopes off ebay for like 40 bucks.
search "usb zoom microscope" on ebay for cheap ones or here for a good one http://www.wizardcoinsupply.com/lighthouse-digital-microscope-and-camera-20x-200x.html wizard also sells a better stand for them...
