    are there any markings besides weight & serial #? any manufacturer marks would probably be on side with horn facing the right The markings and shape resemble my Trenton. A Trenton with that serial # would be 1910

    what a cool find! I'm jealous...I've dreamed of making a find like that! That's one of the nicest colonial anvils I've seen. I have 2 very similar to yours and they're "crooked" as well. Don't be afraid to use it...treat her right and you won't hurt it

    exactly what I was thinking. I had a bunch of them at one time but they all were mild steel (galvanized of course)

    Hopefully someone will chime in with a good coal source for you but if you can't find coal near you consider using charcoal. I don't know if it's the same in Alabama but here is SC we can buy lump charcoal in places like Wal-Mart & Lowes...just make sure it's real charcoal and not the briquettes. You can also make your own charcoal. A lot of folks also use dried corn as fuel. I don't have any personal experience with corn I understand that it works great. Best of luck to you! By the way, walking the RR tracks is considered trespassing so I can't condone that BUT I used to do the same thing and had great luck! Amazing how much coal spills from the cars.

    Great advice. Concentrate on the basics. Practice, practice, practice

    that's a good deal with the tools included. I have a couple of Peter Wrights that I use regularly. They're great anvils
