HI All, just getting into the hobby. Started with a piece of railway track but came across this anvil and figured it was better than the track. Seems the previous owner ground off the maker markings for some reason. Maybe he bought it and thought the previous owner stamped his name in it?? Only other markings are 1 3 7 which I assum is the weight in hundreds? and a "V" on the foot under the horn. Any ideas? It came from a community that traded heavily with England back in the day.
