Curve/bend text in 3ds Max - help pls!

Hello everyone! 😄
So I'm new to the world of modeling and I'm trying to improve my skills by making anything I can find by hand! Soooo.... I'm trying to make a coin with text, numbers and everything.. But since the shape is round (woah, really!), I need to bend my text so it fit the shape of the coin! 

Any idea how I do this? I've tried to look around for answers, but I can't get the modifier "bend" to help me and anything else I find online is about making animation with text 😕 ...



Many thanks!

The text on a coin doesn't bend persay but is on a curved path. So create each letter separatly and place it on a path that it curved the way that you want using the Path Constraint.
