Age of Hay-Budden


Recommended Posts

:confused:Can anyone help me put an age my anvil? I have a Hay-Budden with serial number 85572. I know a little history of Hay-Buddens and think it has to been manufactured around 1910 maybe earlier. Sweet 85lb anvil. A few little battle scars, face is in fairly flat, nice ring and bounce. For $75 I am not complaining. Got to love farm auctions especially ones that do not list all the items on the bill and you find a treasure. :)

I have what I believe to be a Hay-Budden 111lb anvil, but am unsure, as the stamp is pretty worn, however, it looks identical to other Hay-Budden Anvils. The horn, step and face are all in almost mint, besides a few nicks in the face. The serial number is pretty worn as well, but I believe it is 143143. Just wondering if the serial matches that of a Hay-Budden number, and if so.. what year was it manufactured?
All in all, it is in excellent shape, and truly can't complain for $50.00
