I recently picked up a lighted magnifier that clips on to any smart phone. It basically turns your phone's camera into an electronic microscope. Very handy for examining edges, scratches, corrosion, etc. I paid $7.99 plus tax from a major retail chain but I've seen them in other stores as well.

Here are a couple stills I took with the device. It's much clearer with the live view than it looks in the pictures.
