[QUOTE="rmpsrpms, post: 2733938, member: 31773"]I'm not sure what you are all attempting to do. The way I see it, for varieties under magnification: For direct-viewing under the microscope (during searches or attribution) it's better to hold the coin by hand so it can be held at an angle to the light, etc. For photographing under the microscope (to document a find) it's better to hold the coin flat and to adjust the lights to emphasize highlights and shadow details. Is this search for some way to hold the coin targeted at searching or photographing? Or maybe is it targeted for full-coin use rather than for varieties? What is the goal?[/QUOTE]
