Judson Yaggy Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 PW's were marked in hundredweight so originally 120 pounds, probably a little less now due to the wear. After 1910 or so due to the "solid wrought" in a circle. Is that a poorly made arc weld around the step/horn or is it just severe mushrooming? If it's just mushrooming from heavy use I'd call that anvil fair condition, if it's a weld that would indicate an attempt to fix a pretty big flaw and would rate it to be in poor condition. Still some usefulness in it for a beginner or someone who's been working on a RR track anvil of course, just NOT a collectors item or anything special. I'd expect it to maybe fetch $200 tops on ebay and only after it lingers there for a while. Between ebay fees and the hassle of shipping I'd just sell it to some local kid who wanted to start blacksmithing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 If you want a cost estimate YOU NEED TO LIST YOUR LOCATION!PW are cheaper in the UK than in Australia and just here in the USA there can be a 50% differential depending on location!
