    Hello? I recently came upon this anvil in Rogers, Arkansas. Sorry, it is a Craigslisting and this is the only photo other than a close up of the date 1886 stamped into the lower rear waist. It is listed as a Fisher anvil. I am not real familiar with these anvils, much less identifying them through a photo. Weight is listed at 135lbs. The asking price is $625.Any insight would be appreciated before I make a trip to view it. Thanks. Chris

      At almost $5/lb, it is on the high end for anvils of this type.  It is in good shape, but not perfect.  It is hard to tell what is under the paint.   Go and look at it, check the rebound, and inspect carefully.  Take some cash, and be prepared to make an offer more in the $400 range(or less).  You never know.
