Hello all!!! I was just given a Peter wright patent England olld wrought anvil. The numbers on the side are 1 1 14. I've done some research and supposedly those numbers are the weight in some old English way of the weight but needs to be calculated. As I read and if I am understanding correctly the first number is hundreds which is 1 (112), second number is a quarter of that 1 (28), third number is 14.
112+28+14=154lb? Am I doing the math correctly?
 
Put it on the bathroom scale and confirm it.
