Define counterfeit.
When it comes to hand made drums like this there is no such thing as counterfeit. If you are wondering if the drum is good you'll have to rope and head it, play it and decide. Handmade drums are so individually distinct they can only be assessed by playing them. Of course, if you know how to do that then you've already got more rope drum expertise than most. Making a head from raw hide and a metal hoop, and then weaving the rope is a skill only obtained from lots of practice.
