I found these coins to a prop auction, with high-res photos, and matched them to their screen appearances. This became a tracing and relief-modeling exercise to dial in proportions, depth, and edge profiles. The Imperial credit is all about crisp geometry and sharp chamfers. The New Republic coin took the most time with the layered crest, Aurebesh ring, fluted fields, and the shallow dish in the center that catches light just right.
These are pictures of the actual props used in the show, sold in an auction, and below are my recreations of them.
