Can anyone identify this?

I think this is some sort of anvil. Does anyone know what this was used for? HAINES is the only marking that I can find on it.

Kinda looks like some kind of specialty anvil.

One Hains business is flooring and stone work. I wonder if that could be a tamper for setting a sand or stone base.

no neat sig line

I like it. No idea what it would be for, but I would know how to use it!

That is a Corona Light and some kind of statue.

Tamper for foundry / mold making? I suspect its heavy (cast iron?).

Worlds biggest espresso tamper?
