Thanks for your suggestion. I already have a decent digital camera
with macro capability but have not yet found a quick workable setup to
take good pictures. Lighting is always a problem, even when using
daylight.

Using a scanner is very quick to set up and import the picture
straight into the photo editing software. I have timed myself and
from deciding to take a picture of a coin to having the finished,
edited picture on screen and saved takes less than three minutes.
