I seached this forum on keywords associated with my topic and no hits.
Perhaps there are more appropriate sources of recommendations, and if so
inform me.

I have downloaded a few trial/evaluation versions of utilities that search
for duplicate images; JPGs .
Some claim that they will find visually similar images in addition to those
that are binarily identical.

I have tried to use Running Man Software's DIF, and some others. I don't
mind paying a reasonable price for a good tool. I have not found one that
has a really good interface and functionality that suits me.

Where should I be looking?

How many images do you have in your database?

I would be interested in some of the products you've tested.
I've got a rather large set of images ~20K or so. I'm retired and have
time to play with some of the utilities.

I've been using DupDetector for years and have had some good success
with it. It can be found at;

http://www.321download.com/LastFreeware/page18.html

It is no longer under development but I haven't needed any more than it
does.
