I've owned one Arm & Hammer anvil, and didn't care for it at all. The one I had was 132lb, and was dead as a doornail. There could have been a number or reasons. It MIGHT have been through a fire, or who knows what. But when you dropped a 1' ball bearing on the face from about a foot or so distance, it was like dropping the bearing on concrete.just kinda went 'thud' and didn't rebound.
A Columbus Forge and Iron made anvil. (Columbus, OH.) Probably with a cast iron base welded to a solid wrought upper works. (weld at the waist.) Serial number 18199 would have been 1900. (1900 ran from 12001-20,000) Very good quality anvils. Looks like yours is in pretty decent shape.
Arm And Hammer Anvil Serial Numbers. Programstory690.weebly.com DA: 26 PA: 41 MOZ Rank: 67. If the Anvil is an Arm and Hammer, the serial number would indicated a year of manufacture of 1913-1914. This year would fit into the oval depression scheme on the cast steel bases as seen on your anvil.

Arm And Hammer Anvil Serial Numbers

Brad, as I wrote you earlier I believed this anvil to be a Hay-Budden.
Last night I reread the Hay-Budden section in Richard Postman's
'Anvils in America', (just published and by far the best work on the
subject available!), and I think I found the clincher!

'There is one other diference in those anvils with the 'A' prefix.
The number on the front of the waist under the horn is always a '4'.
Somtimes the '4' is upside down.'

Arm Hammer Anvil Serial Numbers

This 'upside down `4' sure sounds like your 'T-Z' mark.

Please double check the serial though the 'A' series are not listed
as having gone as far as the 80K's, (if it is a 30K number it was made
in the early 1920's)

BTW although two british firms Mousehole and Peter Wright used the
old hundredweight system of marking, most of the american firms did
not. They used a simple weight stamp. (n.b. Hay-Budden also used
a 1-3 digit stamp that is believed to refer to the lot of steel
used in its construction so if the 157 is not indicative of the
weight it is probably this lot number)

Another sign of the Hay-Budden is the 'hourglass shape' of the
indentation on the bottom of the anvil, (actually a fairly thin rim
that projects down from the edge of the base and so follows the
base's contours.) [I told you it was a *good* book...)
