Of course it is a fake. If it is a Nantan, it would have rusted away
into a million flakes about 997 years ago it if it was really carved
1,000 years old. Even if it wasn't a Nantan, I would guess it still
would have rusted to an extreme state in less than 100 years time,
unless it maybe was a very nickel rich ataxite.
