What are Scottish hammered coins?
Scottish hammered coins are coins struck by hand, using a hammer to impress the design onto a blank piece of metal. Because they were made individually rather than by machine, they can vary in shape and strike, and it is normal to see off-centre strikes, uneven edges, or parts of the legend missing.
