Anvil coming up in an auction. They say it is a Penton anvil, 152#. Never heard of one and found nothing on the net. Anyone here know anything about one of these?

I've not seen it yet so cannot say whether it is a Trenton or not. All I know is that they listed it as a Penton.





I did get a number off of it. It is #T155 A80A91. Hope this helps in the identification.

I'll bet they either typed the Trenton in the ad wrong, or the Trenton on the anvil is mangled and they thought it read Penton.  

 

And, if it's the latter, that means they don't really know much about anvils and you might be able to get it for a good price.

From my very limited exp. a T155 (weight) on the left of the front foot followed by the A80A91 (S/N) on the right looks like a Trenton marking scheme...If it is a Trenton it looks like it was made in 1908. The second A in the S/N should be a digit vice a letter...maybe a 4?

 

Hope you get it.
