I snuck out for a couple of hours to revisit the pasture field where I found the portion of a socketed axe head...

I have only been on it a few times but I have been convinced it might turn up a late hammered..

Previous visits have produced a lot of moo tube and canslaw, plus a few toasted coppers, but then the partifact that looked as if it might have some age..

This evening seemed to be a canslaw evening again, with the odd head scratching partifact just to tease me..

I then got a very shallow 13, and thought : "More canslaw!" or words to that effect...

You can imagine my surprise when the little hammered below popped out no more than 2" down, still in the roots of grass..

I am no good at IDing hammereds, but after squinting through my copy of Spinks, I am going to guess it's an Edward penny ??

If anybody can ID it properly, it would be most appreciated...

As always, many thanks for that....I think that is one of my earlier hammereds, so very pleased with that...

I initially thought it had been clipped, but after removing the dirt, I think it's just been struck slightly off centre...
