What I have done for a few guys, is use a Military challenge coin, and epoxy it in.

There is a new thread on the Hunting Knife & Crafting section of TG that is similar to your topic. It might have some ideas for your medallions.

We use these..  Laser Cut Alder Medallions.  We recess them into the riser using "Bar Top Epoxy"..

You can also get cast metal medallions from "Coins For Anything"  They have a dot com business at that name.
