Hi Jammer,
That lettering is indeed pretty small to expect not to chip-out.
I don't know if you have tried it but the composite Bamboo seems to take fine engraving quite well but requires sealing before colour filling to prevent paint bleed.
Laser would be good, particularly now that the 4 Watt or so diode lasers are available at reasonable prices but it would still make for expensive coasters
