To follow up, that for sale post disappeared right after your post, kossy, so either it was a good anvil, or people around here are just willing to part with their money! We’re visiting family in the SE corner of Minn, so might see if I get to check out what the Amish have here.

Thanks again for all the help. Going to check this out has dropped down my list of priorities, so we'll see when it happens... John, I take it if you'd go yourself, you'd just squeeze the horn a little harder to see if it mushroomed?

Thanks for all the info/advice. I was hoping I was seeing a line about an inch down that meant a steel top !! Does less than 70% rebound automatically mean cast iron? I don’t feel confident I’ll know if it is... He’s asking 500 CAD, which is around 375 US.

Can any one give me an idea about this anvil? Says it’s 125# What should I offer for it???
