Based on my budget i am looking at a 75# anvil on ebay, brand not named. With shipping it comes out to $215. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-EXTREMELY-RUGGED-ROUND-HORN-FARRIER-WELDING-BLACKSMITH-75-POUND-STEEL-ANVIL-/131158248933?_trksid=p2054897.l5659
The other is a 70# NC standard anvil for $278 including shipping from CentaurForge. http://www.centaurforge.com/NC-70-lb-Standard-Anvil/productinfo/18NC70/
The NC costs more, weighs a bit less, though it is shaped like a traditional anvil, and seems a bit more versatile. The one listed on ebay claims to be forged, The NC on centaur forge is not stated, though they do not say with their cliff carols which are a bit more, though more than i would like to spend if i can get the same weight at almost equal quality for $50 less. Which should i get?
