This is a mjölnir made out of 23 karat gold. I commissioned it specially using an original viking pendant found in the locality of Romersdal on the island of Bornholm, Denmark as a model.

The students who thought they were putting with a lucky ball were better at it than students told they were using a regular ball. There is more information here.
