Guys this looks to be a vise job, correct. Confused though as to why some of the features are incused and the others are not. Also it's weight is 8.0 grams?

Are the mirror-image elements incuse? Does the metal match a normal quarter? Eight grams is significantly overweight. Is it possible it is a lead round pressed between two quarters?

Guys, sorry it turns out to be a piece of lead. When spruett001 said lead, I looked at it again and it bends, sorry for this issue.
