It's way too small to be a die trial for a 10 peso, or really any Chilean coin. My guess is a play token or other novelty.
This type is KM# 80a. Nice piece and a good buy at only $10 :)
Never hurts to ask for a specific one, worst case scenario is a "no". But either way, I'm sure you will have no problem cherrypicking one pretty...
This photo is from a current ebay listing from seller jdmern (I believe may be also a member here). The crop shows 4 coins, top two are normal,...
Here's an example of the same fantasy counterstamp on a Malaya 10 cent:...
Watch out for stuff like this. There is a rash of modern countermarks coming from Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. The Georve VI coin is one...

Coin alignment is normal for both maundy and normal pieces
I would hope that people are smarter, but not exactly 100% faithful in that
Presently out of my range as far as price and availability of pieces with good eye appeal, but how cool would these two look side by side :)...
Not really a scam, someone that thinks this is a genuine coin needs a new hobby
