Mark 1991 Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Pick this up for a 100 bucks. I know it's a Peter wright, not sure of the weight my guess is around 150. it does have 1 1 4 on on it. Any one know what that means? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the iron dwarf Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 the numbers show the weight in the format of hundredweight 112 lb, quarter 28 lb and pounds so it should be 112 + 28 + 4 = 134 lb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark 1991 Posted December 6, 2015 Author Share Posted December 6, 2015 Is there a way to figure out around what year it was made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozenforge Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 You can get a date range but we need a good picture of the logo that is part of and above the weight markings. You need to make a little bottle opener, steak flipper or something cause you got a REALLY GOOD DEAL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark 1991 Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 sorry kind of a bad picture. Around the middle number the is a logo that says solid wrought iron hard to make out but it's there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozenforge Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 It can be from 1860 to 1910. According to AIA Peter Wright only made 1 design change around 1885 and it only affected anvils over 150lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
