I believe Jim Marke's suggestion of taking a digital photograph
(or take multiple photographs of pieces, then stitch them together in
PhotoShop or the like) is probably the cheapest and may be the fastest.

That said, if you have the coin, you could invest in one of these:

any of their other products.  Possibly you could find one to rent.
