ThomasPowers Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 C in a triangle is a Columbian an all cast steel anvil made in Cleveland OH. They are considered a good anvil; but like most cast anvis: be careful of the edges and MUTE it's ring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Frog Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 This Columbian looks to have the Fagersta Bruk mark on it too, made in Sweden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John O Posted August 15, 2017 Author Share Posted August 15, 2017 Thank you to everyone who provided a response. I am happy the anvil was identified. I am keeping it, but does anyone have an idea on what the value may be? On 8/13/2017 at 8:18 PM, ThomasPowers said: C in a triangle is a Columbian an all cast steel anvil made in Cleveland OH.

ThomasPowers Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Several thousand pesos; it is in Mexico like I am right? Over 100 countries participating here. In the USA an anvil can vary in price by 50% just between Ohio and New Mexico. However in general that anvil should go between US$2 to US$4 a pound in the USA with higher prices possible if you are in certain locations.
