    Hi Sid,

    I doubt that a JPEG gives decent results, when used as a Height map, but anyway:

    you’ll need a lot of Geometry on the coin, but then any grey-scale Image can be used as a Height map by plugging it into a Vector > Displacement Node and change the Material Settings to anything but Bump Only:

    See also the Fundamentals of Texturing (the older one, that is more in-depth, or the newer one with Blender 4.2) on how to set this up. They will also tell you where to find Image Textures.
