Leather worker (6)
I believe the answer is:
tanner
'leather worker' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for tanner that I've seen before include "One preparing leather" , "He cures hides, for an old sixpence" , "once seeing heads and tails here?" , "Hide worker; old coin" , "[PENNIES] ?" .)
