1899, that's pretty cool. Thanks for the information!

Hey all,
My brother, father and I have decided we are going to learn this craft. None of us have any experience, but are all excited to learn! After researching anvils for a month or so to get an idea of what to look for, I came across a 160# hay budden which I think looks like it is in great shape for a good deal. I can't quite read the first two digits of the serial number on the foot under the horn (maybe 44?). I don't have the master book (Anvils in America), does anyone have an idea of when this beauty was made?

Thanks for all the advice everyone! I am probably going to not grind for now, learn the craft, get smarter and make that decision later. The idea of restoring it later does seem appealing, but we will see!
