Ill be honest guys, I am not sure if I should have clicked into the HB review thread or started a new one. So I started a new because I am not sure I have a HB anvil, and fear I may have been played. I am not worried about the money but would like to know if it is what I hope it is I do apologize that my first post is to pester you with a question.
Every picture I find of a HB I can identify at least some part of the logo stamp or some other number, but on mine, nothing. No logo, no serial #, nothin.
I am beginning to fear it is not a HB and I bought something else, from one read on 'identifying your anvil' the author made a statement that sometimes anvils were 'unfinished' and sold as is for cheap. So anyway, here is what I have: a 300lb. "Hay Budden" but I am greatly concerned by the texture on the side and lack of any markings that i can find. The bottom (I forgot to take a picture) is flat with a square hole in the center. I can see the top plate seem, and maybe another between the top half and the bottom half at the waste.
