Pretty Unproductive Hunt but Still a Cool Hammer

[NorILdigcollector]

I went out scouting for a couple hours this afternoon in the field next to the one where I found all the Large Cents earlier this year but didn't find much. The hammer was pretty cool. It looks similar to a Habberman or Czech hammer. The tiny buckle was cool as well.

The hammered is an odd shape!
The buckles was most likely Horse Tack related.

Cool hammer! I love finding old tools! Many of my old tools have been cleaned and hung on my " Barn Wall" in my living room.

There it is🤘I've been waiting for that little gem to pop up😁
Was just talking today to the wife about y'all's electrolysis tubs and told her I guess they are season them like you do the cast iron.

I was thinking the same. I need to get my tank set up. I have a few other hammer heads and irons I want to do as well.
