Doesn’t this cause a lot of confusion on whether it’s counterfeit money or not?

Canada does the same and AFAIK it's never really been an issue

Canada has used dozens or even hundreds of impression on their coins. Coloured features, holograms, bimetalic, scratch and snuff, just anything.

Yeah we do so many variations it's almost more rare to see a non special edition coin lol

The US also makes tons of limited edition collectible quarters and dollar coins. Buying them costs way more than face value so they never end up in circulation. Not even sure if they actually are legal tender.
