[Ansteorra] need doumunation on wood and leather burning

[willowdewisp at juno.com]

I have been trying to find out about period use of branding or burning on leather or wood. Do any of you have any resources I could look at at?
Also do any of you metal or coin crafts people know how the decorative "bezants" were made. I don't mean the coin but the thin metal things that were to on garments and fabric. I know the simple one could be made with a die but the more complex deeper relief look like they might have made with a pressing over a mold. what do think?
