Anvil weight

A few years late with this answer but the 113 marking defines this anvils weight.
The first figure is for 1 hundredweight (that is 112 pounds) + 13 pounds for a total weight of weight of 125lbs which is very close to what your scales measured 126 lbs. Possibly made in the U.K. with this sort of marking. Unlikely to be a famous maker if they weren't proud enough to cast their mark into it. Does the makers name really matter ? It looks like a very nice anvil and if it rings true that is all that really matters.
