There are only few mechanical keyboards by IBM:

Huge and heavy ancient stuff which can't be confused with anything PC.
Model F XT and AT.
122 key Model F and M.
101 key Model M and variants (different colors, trackpoints, non-IBM branding, ...).
Space saving Model M (looks like normal M, but tenkeyless).
Model M2 - the most "modern" looking of all, for some values of "modern".
Model M15 - split M2.

Note: Ms and M2s exist in rubber dome versions as well, these can only be distinguished by product numbers or physical inspection.

I think that may be a KB8923 or variant.

Nice for rubber domes but that one looks kind of tired.

"Starting in 2011, the deficits again started to shrink. During Obama’s term  the deficit was reduced by $900 Billion  before finally in 2015 the GOP managed to wrangle a “reconciliation” bill out of Obama where he again cut corporate taxes, as well as made permanent some of George W. Bush’s original tax cuts. This is the year everything reversed. Before this, under Clinton, Bush and Obama the deficit in almost every year was gradually decreasing. The balance we had of taxes and the economy was bringing the deficit down, the money coming in was slowly catching up with the money going out until 2015. Trump’s subsequent tax cut has continued the new trend even after the rest of Bush’s cuts have since expired. Obama had an average GDP of 2.3%, with 11.6 million jobs created and unemployment peaking at 10% in 2009, then falling to 4.3% in 2016. If we had continued on that downward deficit track, we would have again reached balance and another surplus in 2017-2018.

Yes, rubber dome. It's a KB8923, yes - different PN for different layout. ISO Portuguese.
