It looks oversized to me. Hard to tell without something for comparison.

Compare it to this French 5F. I don't doubt that it was a real coin once. This is what a craftsman can do.

Based on the reverse, I think this started out as a genuine Morgan dollar. Somebody did something to the obverse (enameling, perhaps) and turned it into jewelry, thus destroying any numismatic value. But I wouldn't call it "fake."
