Certainly the absence of a serial number is generally the sign of a fake bar.
The OMP looks ok.
The design changed in 2010 bar. I have read that the current version has a mask that stands slightly proud of the bridge of the nose. The coins have smoother details and less of them and the ears of wheat in the head dress of the Lady is simplified.

i see the left most coin is well clear of the rest of the coins - it isn't clear of the body of the coins normally. i have seen one that is and that didn't have a serial number. i think unless you are willing to take a punt on it and you are able to test it then i would give it a pass.
