Wrought Iron Farm Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Hey guys, I need help trying to date my first anvil. I found it on Facebook for $200. It’s definitely a step up from the railroad track I’ve been using. Now I just need to upgrade the torch to a forge and I’ll really be in business. Anyway the face is awesome and has great rebound but this thing must have sat in a field for 50 years. All of the holes below the waist were packed with dirt. The logo is barley visible and the dating marks are almost nonexistent. I believe the numbers on the front foot are 12832 or 12632. Here are some pics.

Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Nice anvil at a good price, someone with a copy of AIA will be able to give a date for her. Looks like she cleaned up well, those handling holes are favorite places for mud dobbers to build nests if it's not used a lot. I've had em build nests in less than a day.
