Like many civic coppers, I think yours is overstruck. I feel like I recognize the undertype but can't quite find it. I'll make a follow up reply if I do end up finding it. For now, I'll just link another civic copper that seems to have the same undertype

I only looked quickly but I didn't find anything similar, just the one from Qandahar

Awesome thank you guys I believe it's definitely in that region, possibly over struck(?). I'll try and look further into it.
