    I would recommend annealing the material or buying it dead soft since
    it will harden with the rolling and the harder the material is going
    in the less impression it will take. 

    To maximize depth one would think that steel would be best, but
    remmeber to protect your rollers, be it cloth, plastic or softer than
    steel sandwiched above the embossing plate all should work equally
    well. 

    Companies that create dies for branding, embossers and the like
    should be able to make your faux engraver.

    is one company that seems to fit the bill, but I don't know them from
    Adam, or if they can produce what you need, just found them by
    Googling "steel dies font". 

    Good luck and enjoy the new year and all that it has to offer,
