    Coin inlay with Epoxy

    You could also do a light pour into the coin hole, and brush around with a brush. Use some heat to get the air bubbles out, and then before full set put your coin in. You can then pour the rest of your epoxy over it. The goal is to see the opened pore of the grain prior to the larger pour...
