@Daswulfthat is exactly what i'm worried about. Thanks for the help! @ThomasPowers, I believe you're correct. This anvil is located in Santa Fe, NM so proximity wise it very well could be from Mexico. I have a ball bearing ready to go with me in my truck at all times for just such a test. I'll need to consider this carefully, not sure if it's worth risking what I know to be a great anvil for essentially an ASO. Thank you for your time and info!

A guy near me is looking to trade the anvil linked for a lighter weight anvil. https://imgur.com/gallery/cP8tG2U my anvil is a 120lbish Peter Wright. My question is, is there anything that can be revealed from this picture? The only thing I noticed is that there is what looks to be either a crack or a seam running the length of the anvil. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the help! Yah I think this one will be a hard pass.

Local guy is selling a #108 Trenton with some hardy tools and a vise (Chas Parker?). Not sure if the anvil alone is worth nearly that sight unseen. This would be my first true anvil, currently I'm working with a large piece of a fork lift fork. What are are your collective thoughts? Thanks!
