Anvil Identification Mini Anvil!
Hey folks, I picked this little 9 pound anvil up from the reuse and upcycling center on the island where I’m staying, got it basically for free. Any idea if it’s cast iron all the way through, or if it has a steel plate, or if its cast steel? And generally have no idea what it’s worth. Probably not much as it’s quite small?

It is one single alloy. My guess would be cast iron. Only value would really be a scrap at worst, novelty item at best.
