<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3140748, member: 19463&quot;]There are many, many brands an models of stereo microscopes.&nbsp; eBay is full of options.&nbsp; I doubt you will find the exact model I bought a decade ago or the one shown in galba68&#039;s link but they have in common the general shape and direct view (not LED) which I find pleasing. </p><p><br /></p><p>I see several scopes being sold on eBay that are NOT what you want.&nbsp; Stereoscopic microscopes give a 3D view delivering a different angle view to each eye.&nbsp; You want that.&nbsp; There are Binocular scopes that have two eyepieces hooked up to just one objective that do not give 3D.&nbsp; You don&#039;t want that.&nbsp; There are even a few items being sold that are listed as monocular stereo.&nbsp; You can not be both at the same time.&nbsp; There are also some perfectly goo stereo microscopes that have a third tube on which you can attach a camera and record a 2D image while viewing 3D through the scope.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I know the link recommends a 20x scope for cleanig but I use mine mostly for viewing and appreciate having a weaker 10x option that allows you to see more of the coin.&nbsp; Mine is 10x and 30x with rotating 1x ad 3x objective pairs and 10x eyepieces.&nbsp; I&#039;m sorry I can not provide a link to exactly what I would recommend but suspect that there are may that will do as well as the one I have.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]802862[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
