I've seen worse-looking no-name anvils than the one in this thread going for bigger money from "blacksmith tool dealers" on our local Craigslist. Back "in the day", a dollar a pound was the going rate. I am always amazed at the prices anvils are going for. The Kohlswa is cast from manganese steel and is a different animal, but a good anvil as well. The Peter Wrights are fine anvils with a nice rebound and ring to them and a nice proportioning. I've got two (2) Peter Wright anvils of about 125 lbs apiece, and one (1) Kohlswa Swedish anvil of 200 lbs in my shop. I think the anvil in this thread is "legit", but seeing an anvil with a coat of paint always makes me a bit suspicious. He got it home and discovered it was once an anvil, but had been builtup with bird-shit welding and then "restored" to anvil like shape using Bondo, after which it got a coat of heavy black paint. The black paint job has me remembering a sad thread about a fellow in Maine (if I remember right) who bought a "black painted anvil shaped object" at an auction. How this relates to overall condition of the anvil and sale price is something I do not know. The steel face could be repaired using welding with hard-facing electrode. Peter Wright anvils had what was called a "chilled steel face" welded to a wrought iron body. The Peter Wright anvil in this thread has seen some use as the face is kind of "swaybacked" in the middle. The larger anvil tool with the slots is likely for forging toe calks on draft horse shoes.
