A processional mining tool. From Saxony. Carved wooden handle with metal head, spiked at one end. Carved handle is mostly dark wood with some lighter carved areas. There is some form of coat of arms at the bottom, then there are three other sections up the handle with names carved alongside some other detailed carving.
