OK but that is not a lump of coal. And wood in the handle would not last thousands of years. The limestone explanation for this is very much more likely.
Yes... The point is to show that processes that encase things can happen fast. Coal is just as easy, you just need a fire under a heavy wooden building that gets buried.
But the most interesting thing is the carbon dating and what it shows/implies.
Fossilisation can also happen fast if the conditions are favorable, in fact industrial mineralisation of wood is possible and can be used to make bone grafts.
The main point is the dating, the stories of dragons are real we call dragons dinosaurs
The article you linked from IFLS cited a paper that stated the rock around the hammer is not old. And that there has been no reliable C14 testing done on the hammer due to the owner not allowing it/paying for it. So I am not sure where you are seeing that the rock was from 400 million years ago.
The rock it was in is claimed to be cretaceous rock.
The main point is to show how natural processes of mineralization can do things that you would think would take much longer and that it can do it it places and ways that can be very confusing to archeologists and geologists.
Now think about all the other things that have been buried.

OK but it was not actually cretaceous rock. The claim was false.

This really just points out how these objects are NOT from ancient times pre-flood. If they can become embedded in rock quickly then there is no proof of an OOP artifact.

That wiki article is only a starting point, the rock it was encased in was dated to the Cretaceous period 400 million years ago. https://www.iflscience.com/the-mystery-of-the-modern-london-hammer-found-encased-in-ancient-rock-67095
