Please write "communist symbols" at H, as I thought only of hammer because of the description, it wasn't accepted

The hammer and sickle is generally considered to be a single symbol, but Ι understand that the clue can be confusing. I've now tweaked it so that "hammer" gives you the full answer. Thanks for the input!
