I came across a picture of an Effigy in the following 2 books showing a Knight? with a round shield and military pick (pick-hammer).
The picture is a drawing of the Effigy by Stothard (see attached).

Does anyone have a clearer / high-res pic to post as the one is both books is blurry and small?
Maybe even a photo of the effigy itself?

Can anyone provide me with more information about the Effigy and the arms and armour depicted?
I am especially interested in the military pick (pick-hammer).

I have managed to find 3 other exampls of military picks (pick-hammers):

If anyone has any information or thoughts on these types of weapons please post.
If anyone has more pictures of the examples above or other examples please post.

Thanks
