Hill anvil

[M Hill]

There is an anvil on Marketplace that is a Hill made anvil.  It has the usual "I" above the Hill, but this one has an "H" to the right of Hill.  Is this usual or does it mean something?  Anything with Hill on it gets my attention - Duh!  133# but pretty swayback so not probably going to get it unless it is the only one with the extra "H" - My first name starts with an H.  Any info would be appreciated.

I did a search like this "hill anvil iforgeiron.com" without the quotes. Google returned 871 results. Some might help you. That way to search is listed in the Read This First thread. Pictures of the anvil will help if you have them.

You must have a better search engine because when I searched I got around 500 supposed hits.  Then I started looking and many/most did not even mention Hill anvil.  I tend to do my research before I ask a question.  Isaac Hill or I Hill anvils I know about as well as D Hill anvils and possibly Isaac's son, maybe Thomas, but did not find any markings.  But NOT an I Hill with an H anvil.  Was just asking if anyone knew about them because I did not find anything about an anvil marked I Hill H.   It is also marked with the stone weight of 1 0 21 on the reverse.

Whoops - fat fingers - hundredweight not stone weight.

Could have been a simple mistake when they were stamping it and someone started at the wrong end with the H.  Mis-stamps on older anvils are not that uncommon. It looks like the same H stamp was used. I'd go with Mis-stamped I Hill.
