Magnifier Information
A coin magnifier or coin magnifying glass consists
of a coin magnifying lens that is either hand held or hands free, lighted or non-lighted. The advantage
of coin magnifier is that it provides magnification that is stronger then your eyeglasses and will
eliminate eyestrain. For best coin magnifying glass results
wear your glasses. A coin magnifier with light will provide a sharper and clearer image then a non-lighted
coin magnifying glass. Magnifiers
decrease light transmission. Either provide your own adequate lighting or select a magnifier with a built in light. Select magnifying glass for coin collectors that will provide a magnifying power
that suits your needs at a comfortable work distance. A very high power may result in an uncomfortable short work distance.
To strong may be to close.
The
following information is provided by: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loupe A loupe is a small magnification device used to see small details more closely. Numismatists and coin collectors---Loupes are an essential tool in both numismatics, the study of currency, and the related practice of coin collection. Coin collectors frequently employ coin magnifier loupes
for better evaluation of the quality of their coins, since identifying surface wear is vital when attempting to classify
the grade of a coin. Uncirculated coins (coins without wear) can command a substantial premium over coins with slight
wear. This wear cannot always be seen with the naked eye. Numismatists can also employ coin magnifier loupes
to identify some counterfeit coins that would pass a naked-eye visual inspection.

to calculate the power of a magnifying lens. The higher diopter will provide higher magnification. Diopter
is expressed as "D" Power: Power is how large an object or print increases as you look through a lens. Magnifying power
is expressed as "X" Focal Length: Measurement from the
center of the lens to to the object and be in focus. Focal Range: The distance
from the magnifying lens to the object being viewed. Fresnel Magnifier: A flat magnifier consisting of concentric circles that can be a full page reading magnifier. Visual impairment (or vision impairment)
