hickman Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Got a 105lb Arm and Hammer anvil from my Dad at Christmas, is well worn as he has used it as his primary farriers anvil since 1973. I id'ed it with help from the forum, but I am looking for an age on it. The serial # is C5057 and it is a wrought Iron body with tool steel face. I do not have access to a copy of "Anvils in America" myself, so is there any chance someone could help me with this? Thanks, Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sask Mark Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 It looks like your anvil is from the 1901-1903 range (AIA states an anvils with a sn of 4507 was made in 1901). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hickman Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 Thank you for the info Sir, I just like to know how old items are when using them, makes me wonder what they've been through in the time since they were created. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
