If the same vendor is not available, Seoul, South Korea is a very good place to have such items made up. In the military we had unit coins made there all of the time. It was a bit easier when we were there several times a year but we also did orders through the mail without issue. They will repeat a design or work from a drawing. I can probably get a contact.
