It doesn't even look like a bead. It looks like a logo for a high tech company or a new version of Alexis. hahahaha

here is the actual bead

I now believe now these were found either in Peru or Panama, trying to help someone with an old collection

Peru is not a surprise.

I hate to say this but, having seen a number of real "flush-eye" beads from early American contexts, this bead looks ultra modern to me.

Some real early examples are depicted in Plate 6 of the St. Catherines Island report.
