Thief_Of_Navarre Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 By the shape I'd asume mid 1800 english. I can't say really, the impression I get from the neck is different from the feet. A Sanderson maybe!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McPherson Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Thick horn and heel, raised numbers under the horn, straight line across the waist, very slight drop from the face to the table: all spells cast to me. Cast iron boat anchor, or cast steel modern anvil? That you would have to determine in person. That really thin chip in the face worries me.

JT Posted June 1, 2017 Author Share Posted June 1, 2017 these are the only photos he has right now, he is also selling the Anvil in the background on the stump, he says the only markings he see's on that one is two 0's on the back.. that one is 175 lbs. the one on the steel stand is 185 lbs.

ThomasPowers Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Checking the front foot for numbers and a picture of what the bottom of the anvil looks like might produce a maker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
