The lead hammer on one end and copper on the other was a standard part of the
factory tool kit for Jaguars, Triumphs, and MG's that had factory wire wheels.
Think we used the copper end to start the thing, and the lead to get it the rest
of the way off.  Reverse in putting it back on.  Believe Moss Motors still has
them.  Brooklands (US) did, but I understand they are no longer with us.
