PEA - what are you using to look at all those coins for die cracks/chips/etc? I did most of a bag of nickels and my eyes were hurting the next day. I ordered a 10x loupe on Amazon and the thing is seriously this wide --------.

old black plastic cup style 10X on my glasses. hold a short stack between thumb, fore finger & middle finger--

hold the stack in focus for quick scan of coin then flip it & move to other hand into the dump bag-- then scan next coin in stack & repeat.

always check both sides for rotation & rim scan of stack for clips & collar breaks (---LORDY_______silver :dontknow::laughing9:).

any coin with a suspected error gets the lighted 20X loupe. fast production line process---- cut ends off rolls for neat rows to grab the short stacks. gets easy to weed out the PMD & just harvest the good 'uns :laughing7:

we ain't peelin' no stinkin' wrappers off :BangHead:


and finally---- wash the hands :laughing9::happysmiley:
