I really must stop detecting and do some gardening  Grin
Only found one of these before and that was many moons ago, bent into an L shape, heated it up with a diy blowlamp to cherry red a few times until it was malleable; put it on a soft cloth covered it and pushed it reasonably straight with my fingers, heated one more time and then gave it a thump with a heavy object; didn't quite take the one dent out but happy with the result.
Cleaned it up with soda , silver paper and boiling water , then some gentle rubbing with bicarb ,just got to tone it back now  Grin
