Fancy seeing some Medieval errors?

 

I have completed an article about hammered errors, please take a look and tell me what you think!

 

Cheers! :ninja:

Hmmm, I've always thought of hammered errors as just poor workmanship or someone who didn't care--make the daily quota and go home with all your fingers intact. One definition of a good day!

:ninja: Don't worry, I'm not in a hood. But, I do know where you live...

 

Quite a few hammered errors are due to sloppy workmanship but there are errors that might have been caused by the die engravers having more than their daily quota of ale! ;)

 

good article... i haven't read much about hammered errors.

 

Many thanks, I figured that there are many topics regarding modern errors yet few if any on English Hammered errors.

 

Thank you ever so much for your comments, much appreciated! ;)
