If you have the resources, try making your own.
At Scout-O-Rama earlier this year, the booth next to ours was making pogs
out of baseball cards. All they did was have a machinist make up a jig to
hold the card. In the center of the jig there was a round hole the size of
a pog. The jig was made of 3 inch thick steel. A punch was made to fit the
hole perfectly. Put card in, insert punch, apply wooden mallot. Worked
quite well. Poor ascii drawings follow.
