Mart> What is a 200 lb anvil worth has ACME name on it? Good condition.

I'd say that the condition, as long as it's a steel anvil and not cast iron would be more important to know about than the name unless you run across somebody who is collecting ACME anvils. If the face and horn are in really great condition, it might fetch $3 to $4 per pound. If it's useable, $2 to $3 per pound. These days you are competing with many companies selling new anvils. Check around.

ACME in "Sears" talk =3D a Hay-Budden anvil.

Although Hay-Budden made anvils for many companies which were sold under the "Hay-Budden" name Sears decided to have their anvils use the name "Acme."

From just before the turn of the century the anvils were made by adding a steel plate to the wrought iron body. But around

1908 Hay-Budden/Acme anvils were made with the entire top above the "waist" out of tool steel.

It seems you have a nice anvil available to trade for just about any lighter anvil (assuming conditions are similar). Good luck.
