Does the reverse lettering appear kind of janky to you on this Indian cent?

Just my thoughts.
The obverse looks like a carving or done with a sharp die and no pressure.
The reverse looks like it took all the pressure.

What ?
There is something weird there.

could it be the 2x2 plastic causing a distortion appearance?

Ideas?

Next I move it over the first coin (OP) reverse and aligned the left side rim and wreath. Notice how small the coin is to make this alignment. Also you can just see the bottoms of a couple letters (not in the same position).

Next I made the it approximately the same diameter and then moved it above CENT and kept the edges aligned as best I could or centered.
