We want to make the coins very affordable but generous in the amount they hold. What material can they be made from? --snip

Without any kind of reputation to back up your project, then is it not a good idea make coins that is prefunded with more and very small amount. It requires an enormous amount of trust in you, which you don't have, so your will have trouble selling your coins. My advice to you would be to sell them unfunded or below 0.05 BTC.

Hello,

I have just started a new project and would like to commission the services of a well known and trusted mint to issue our first physical coins.

There are to be 3 series of physicals that we will fund costing.

1. Paper note stacks @ 1 coin each

2. Series 1a physical coins @ 100 coins each for 10 pieces

3. Series 2a physical coins @ 50 units each for 10 pieces

We want to make the coins very affordable but generous in the amount they hold. What material can they be made from? Maybe like the Satori coins?

If you would like to work with us on this we would be excited to make our first batch!

As far as I know, in the past - coin producers have done the hard work of finding and testing the different mints available to them. They did not expect this to be done for them. I don't know of any large scale mint that comes here to solicit for work, the best you're going to get is recommendations from other users.

Also, why would you put an "a" suffix after 2 different series? Surely you should make as many as you plan in Series 1, then if it works well enough, switch to Series 2.

As for material, Brass, Bronze are relatively cheap unless you want to go full plastic "token" like those Satori coins.
