[QUOTE="Pocket Change, post: 556026, member: 8012"]I THINK the OP is talking about one of those lighted round magnifying lenses you clamp to your table (or it has a base and you look through the magnifying part). Some of the links above are truly "Coin Geeky"!!!! My Goodness. I've been wanting one for ages. It's on my Christmas list every year, but it seems that my loved ones want to ensure that I have a 5 year advance supply of after shave and socks. Also, don't expect anything more than 2x or 3x. That is the OPTIMUM magnification to get an overall look of your coin. The "God" GDMSP has posted as much, several times. If you want more than 2x or 3x then, yes, look at the GEEKY solution links listed in earlier posts. BTW last Christmas, Menards had one of these. Yesterday, I went there looking for some bolts for a bed frame and I managed to go over to the light section. Apparently they don't carry them anymore. However, a couple of months ago, I saw one at Staples. RUN --> Don't walk![/QUOTE]
