    The raised face and lowered bicks were a known pattern; I have a page from an old catalog showing one. described as a double horn smith's anvil. (English I believe due to the use of "vice" and on another anvil the description "Coachsmith's Anvil'.)  It however does not have the "French" hardy hole.

    Do you have a picture of the page?

  2. Hello,

    I just picked up this old double bick anvil in an early 19th century farm/sawmill/flourmill. The anvil is stamped with "E.W" and 210 (252 pounds). It weights 246lbs on my scale. The hardy hole location reminds me of a french anvil. The steel face is about 1/2"-5/8" thick from what I can see. It has a sharp and loud ring.It does have a good saddle in the middle. Do you have any information regarding this brand of anvil or its origin?

    Thanks for your help!
