That's a counterfeit alright.
I see wrong obverse portrait for one thing.
The one pictured kinda looks like a slimmed down version of the portrait that appears on the obverse of the Australian $2 2018 Armistice coin.
"Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

Also it shows the date on both sides when it should only be on the reverse.

And I guess the reason for the edge shot is to show it's also missing the edge lettering.
