No chance for this one I'm afraid. Compare the inner corners to any known original. Try a search for 'Latvian fake' or 'Rounder' and you will see several examples of this well known fake.
Don't forget fakers can stamp their products with marks too and the presence of a stamp should not be taken as a sign of authenticity.

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
