Where to buy/make coin blanks at the best price?  Not the 10-20 on Ebay

 Maybe ask non-ferrous scrap buyers if they'll sell knockouts
(donut holes) from punched parts for a little over scrap price?

I forgot the other question, so my second question is what question (or
questions) did I forget to ask?  Maybe what alloy would best?  I suspect
an annealed copper alloy of some kind.  Many an amusement facility used
to have a machine that would take your penny (and a dollar) and roll
your penny into a souvenir key tag back in the days when pennies were
still copper.

I don't think we have any local manufacturers generating that kind of waste.  I think Barco metal Stamping closed up some years ago, and the only did light gage for things like construction light fixtures.  Still next time I take a load of something over to Yuma Recycling I guess I can ask.
