If someone has what they want drawn up any sheetmetal house can have a tool made and stamp them from any thickness of metal. The stamping tool for the embossing in an NC punch press would be less then 1K and the rest would be fairly easy.
I am in the precision sheet metal industry and we have stamping/blanking tooling made all of the time. Even up to 4 1/2" diameter.

Or you could have the shape punched out of the material of choice and have a engraving place engrave out the embossed area and could even fill it with paint if you wanted. For a low quanity this would be the best way.

I have been thinking about having some made up for my CR.
