Alexx Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I just picked up a anvil yesterday with no visible name. It was mounted to a 400 lb machine base, wth a large Colombian vise. I took the anvil off and wire brushed it for hours. All kinds of wrighting on it. I think the name is Trenton , is marked 130, marked SOLID WROUGHT. Has. JLION on other side with more stamping, also huge # 2 Any buddy no what all this means. I mounted it to a 12 x 14 beam. THAN YOU IN ADVANCE. LOU This is the base, still in car. Need forklift to get it out. Few pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Looks mighty Trenton to me, I think the name stamped into it's side clinches it. The condition looks excellent, what's it weigh? Have you done a rebound test, results? You make some really NICE scores, Lou! Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Hammer Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Sure looks like a German Trenton to me. It has the steps on the feet and the weight stamp right in the same place as mine. If so, it was made before 1898. I think it's on the early end of the German Trenton's like mine is. They were most likely made in Germany by Herman Boker and imported to the USA. Here's a picture of mine for reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
