Do you have an actual image of the original scan to share?

I agree, this is a good way to go. Another tip to keep in mind might be to markup your HTML like this:

Code:
<span class="greek" lang="grc" xml:lang="grc">ἈΝΆΓΚΗ</span>
grc = Ancient Greek
el = Modern Greek

Then you could easily insert/subset a font + do anything special just for the "greek" class.

Also, way back when (2013), in this topic:

Doitsu pointed me to this site:

Lexilogos Ancient Greek Keyboard Online

which I still use to this day.
