Another tip-off, a strong rim and legends with the level of wear on the devices. ND, you stated my guess, which was that it was indeed cast from a low grade example with the legends being retooled and the reeding added after the fact.

In regards to a home made cast, maybe - but my guess would be that it comes from China or thereabouts and was probably produced in quantity.
