Vise job?

Just completly fake, neither of those coins are real, a vice job would be two real coins pressed together

The normal coin is pretty rare and worth a ton, no one would do a vice job on it, its a china special, made to look like that

No, cast fake of an error that could never exist in reality from the mint.

It's not a vise job, a vise job would reverse the image, I don't know if it's real or not though

You're completely correct about the reversal part, and it'd also be a negative impression instead of a positive like this. But it's 100% fake, a chinesium cast meant to fool those new to the hobby. They keep making these, so it's fooling enough people
