if you have good vision i envy you, as i no longer have perfect 20/20 i had to figure out how to work around that problem, here is my solution:

presuming that i am not the only one to have these magnifcation glasses that you wear around your head. i removed the stronger of the 2 lens and moved it to another pair of glasses, for finding small/tiny gold it works great.

I recently started panning and have been using my microscopes as well. Those tiny little pieces of gold really are fun to look at under magnification. So much structure compared to everything else in the pan
