I'm in the process of removing the paint, I only like half of one side to be done, i will post some pics when I'm done. I was looking at some other colonial era anvils and I think it resembles a mouse hole, is this a possibility? There is clearly a "15" on the side at the far right I'm unsure if this is the original hundredweight mark or something else. I am seriously considering putting it up for trade but I think re-enacting would be something I might be into. I'm unsure at this point. Can someone shed some light on this or me!
