Stake anvil ID

Featured Replies

I ended up with this stake anvil today and wanted to see if anyone had an idea about age or value. It is 24 inches high and about 52 pounds. Thanks in advance...Mike

Several hundred pesos at least.  You are in Mexico like I am during the working hours, right?

Most of them I have seen or owned are quite soft; what does the ball bearing test give for the face of it?

That value will affect the value quite a bit; if it's soft it's more of a collector's piece of an adjunct horn/heel for an improvised anvil.  I have seen them in old books being used for barrel making to bend and weld the hoops.  I have not seen any with wear patterns that looked like they had been used for shoeing.
