<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 744338, member: 4552&quot;]I would say your question is pending on how many coins you plan on checking for such items as you mentioned. If you have only few coins, then large magnification items are still pending on your likes and dislikes, like anything else. </p><p>However, if you have thousands and thousands of coins to view, and you use a microscope type set up, you really have to much spare time on your hands. For example I know I have 2,650 of those 1943 Steel Lincoln Cents. I&#039;ve read in <a href="http://www.coppercoins.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coppercoins.com" rel="nofollow">www.coppercoins.com</a> books and web site about all the possible varieties of them. Assuming about 5 minutes/coin not including time to set up stuff, this is 13,250 minutes or 220.83 hours if working continuosly. And then if nothing found??????? Could have watched a great program on TV, washed one of my cars, went to a nice restaurant. :goofer:</p><p>My suggestion is use whatever makes you feel OK and don&#039;t spend more on a magnification process than the coins are worth.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
