I'm in CA in the OC (orange county) I will check the LAMA group and emerson.com as you suggested. No sentimental value on this one I gather... I was hoping to hear that it goes back to the civil war and I could sell it to a museum. I suppose it's only a few years old... Thank you for your input and steering me in the right direction.

Hello, Newbie here, not a smith by any means. My father left this anvil in my garage and I was wondering if I should keep it or sell it. Not sure about its value or worth. The thing looks prettier but it has no use at all. Sad... I looked and couldn't find a date stamp on it. I assume it is a common type anvil? Could someone tell me more based on the pictures. I hammered on the center plate and I got a nice ring with bouncy return about 6 or 7 inches, like a rubber mallet. I would like to sell it to someone who could put it to good use. I apologize in advance if the answer is too obvious (faq, etc.) send me the link otherwise. Thanks
