As Ruistain will not read this, for the benefit of others that may not know. It's called a loupe or eye loupe, I find a 10X suitable for most items.

Thank you Grug that was clear and helpfull and I even impressed the man in the jewelers asking for a 10x loupe and he said your right about the 10x anything over 10x would not be of much use for my needs  Wink
