I am not too accustomed to these coins but I am not entirely sure what to call it. If looks like it would be a mirrored brockage if anything. But I am not entirely sure, let's wait for the experts

Agreed, it looks off, what I mentioned is best case scenario :)
I also believe that it is fake

hmmm some pretty heavy pressure used for the "second strike" (more than I would expect from a hammer or vise job) - it obliterated the original devices. BUT, the beads remained untouched?  Edited by Wade

It didn't obliterate the original devices as much as an actual strike would IMO. To also get the caribou + queen and the community + some other design isn't really possible, is it?
