I bought a new "4k" webcam. It was under $50 and seems to do an okay job so far. The auto focus is about useless, but that is not a problem for photos.

Can it get any closer/higher magnification so you can take full pics of smaller coins, or is that it's limit?

Can you take pictures straight on?
And then crop them?

It may get a little closer on a Morgan, but you start to max out the focus. Smaller coins come out pretty well.

Yes, most of the time you can. It depends on the coin and if it is in a holder or not. You have to keep the reflection of the cam from leaving a shadow on the coin/holder.

Indian looks great - with a decent photo editing program I'm sure those pics can become fantastic.
