The first step is making AI line art. It took me a few attempts and different prompts for the line art to come out perfectly. Then, after making the line art, you will put it into the embossment AI. This will create a depth map.

Now, with your depth map, you will make a circle around the object and subtract it so that it is a round shape. This way, it will fit on your coin. Then you will align it with your coin.

For this, I used a brass coin that I found on Amazon. Here is a link to the exact one that I used: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BX2FNT7H

Step4: Laser time

Now it's time to laser. This is about a 3-hour job, and if you want it a little deeper, you can lower the speed to make it go deeper. I also included a red circle; you should run this after you're done with the embossing as it will clean the coin. Make sure to turn it off at first, then run it after. I did three passes with it. Remember to wear your laser safety glasses, and note that coins get very hot when processed for multiple hours.

You're done with your coin! It has been a long process, but you're finished. :)
