Cool stuff, I love colonial money. You might want to get a camera that takes bigger, more detailed pics to really show the stuff off.  You have a lot of cool stuff but the pics don't do them justice.

The overall image may be 650 X 320 but the actual item is much smaller, unfortunately. So much white space. Perhaps you have a setting wrong or something.

the webcam isn't really made for dark notes as that one, that note has no light colors to reflect the light back at the cam as many of my other notes have

I'm using a 30 watt CFB but i might as well be using a flashlight on this note cause no matter what i do the note comes out not good

And i'm not wanting to see how well it would hold up to a scanner seeing that it's falling apart anyways

These types of notes are very hard to do right with webcams, they are dark colored and have no light areas for the light to reflect back so of course there would be a problem with the pic

And the fact that i don't use anything to enhance my photos also maybe another reason

I have three dark notes as i call them cause they never really look good no matter what light i use

Well i just make do with what i have on hand and hope for the best, but expect the worst

I'm using auto focus on this cam which isn't really helping much due to the lighting problem

Even with the auto white balance it still not helping, so see i am doing what i can to get a good photo but well there are things i can't fix, the color of the note is a major problem

Brown and black two colors that eat light

And a 30 watt CFB should be able to overcome that, wrong answer maybe i can figure something out
