Nice looking celt! Good eye to see that material in the dirt clod.
A nice diorite celt. Good eye is right! Most people would have walked on by.

Wow. What made you investigate that further. Sharp focus! You need to hit that area more. Hopefully you can get some rain to wash off that dirt too.

If you post a photo of the bit head on, we can see if it’s an adze or a celt. Nice either way!
