What kind of USB microscope should I get if I want to get serious in spotting double dies and errors?

I have a couple of cheap ones that I bought on eBay. One is up to 200X and the other one is up to 800X. They magnify the coins on your monitor to just about any magnification you could want. It does take a little time to get used to them; but they do a great job when focused properly. I paid just under $30 for the 200X and about $35 for 800X. There are a lot of other out there that may or may not be better; but I've been very satisfied with the ones I have.

Yeah I have a 50x-500x works pretty good just was curious to see what others are using. Also how can I learn what to look for and how to know if I do find a double die?

Try over at Lincoln cent resource. By the way, it's doubled, not double.
