Anyone ever seen brass cased, berdan primed .223 brass that has a head-stamp of "223 Remington" and "(something in arabic)" ??

I was just running some of this stuff through the press and, needless to say, I had to call Dillon to replace my newly-snapped de-capping pin(s).

After reloading many many many thousands of .223 this is the first time I've yet to see anything with a brass case and a berdan primer. Have I just had blind luck so far or is this an unusual thing?

Edit to add: I tried to take a picture of some of it, but couldn't get it to come out clearly. Google images has nothing on it either.
