What should I get to coin collect?

[Renthewren]

Hello. So, the other day I was wondering about coin supplies. I have the 2x2s, And some album pages. I want to possibly get a usb microscope things And maybe some good weight. I wish to know if there is anything else I am missing, And whether or not I should get them. Thank you!

A 10x loupe is worth considering. By weight I think you mean a scale; yeah, those help. I also like my calipers (metric preferable, as the coin world tends to measure coins in mm). There are plastic coin tongs for holding coins that shouldn't be touched with the fingers. There are also what I call leprechaun condoms, small latex fingertip covers that look like party balloons (or like condoms for the very modestly endowed), and cloth gloves. Just don't spend so much on stuff that you don't have any left over for cool coins.

Thank you for your post. I think that I will definitely get the scales And a loupe. Other than that, I'll Just see what I need along the way. 

Thank!

Add a good light to the list. I keep around 400 polyflips on hand when I am searching 1000's of coins.
