A lord is an Aussie Acan (Acanthastrea lordhowensis). The only way to know if it is from Australia is the ship from location. If it came from Australia, it's Australian;). Sometimes, you can be pretty sure something came from Australia based on color (only because we had seen so many Indo lords and the ones coming out of Aussieland seem to have a lot more color than those known as Indo). The polyps seem different, too, but at the average hobbyist level, that is almost splitting hairs (not many are going to actually try and identify from skeleton, though more should try-myself included).

Nice coral, Dustin.
