Would anybody know the year of this anti-monkey wrench please leave me a comment
Cool old wrench. No marking at all?
Wow!! No telling how old it is huh, I wonder if it was self made by one person, I got it from an old friend of mine and he got it from his dad so it goes back many years ago
nice looking wrench. here's a resource listing of similar patented wrenches:

I think it's a pretty early wrench, when people were trying different designs. I would contact Allloy Artifacts...use the "report an issue" and send pictures and measurements..tell them they don't have one on their site and ask if they want to add yours. They are very knowledgeable and may know who made this...

Whole doing research for my post, I found this information...thought of your wrench...
"Adjustable coach wrenches for the odd-sized nuts of wagon wheels were manufactured in England and exported to North America in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. The mid 19th century began to see patented wrenches that used a screw for narrowing and widening the jaws, including patented monkey wrenches."
How much do you think this monkey wrench worth?
