Glodeskall = "Blacksmith's scale" I wonder?
I don't see "scale" on this head.
Amazing how crisp the non corroded parts of this head are, it'd definitely be interesting to know how it was originally found, how some areas survived free of oxidation especially as it's damaged so one wouldn't expect great care to have been taken with it!
It's not easy to tell from images but it looks a very uniform iron, no evidence of "grain" or impurities.
Interesting!
