If you have a good side shot of it with the text fairly straight in front of the camera you can crop it down to just around the text and use http://www.whatfontis.com/

Be sure to select that you only want to search free alternative fonts and not commercial fonts...unless you want to pay $35+ for a font set. While the free fonts may not be exactly the same, I'm usually able to pick one out that's pretty darn close.

 

The web app there narrows down the list for you and you just have to pick out the one you feel is closest. It's a great tool....especially when there's no one with a degree in Calligraphy within a thousand miles of this site!  :laugh:
