Since there is a postal zip code in the casting it can't be too old. Apple Creek, OH is, however, in the heart of the Ohio Amish country and the seat was either produced to sell to tourists or was used by the Amish on their horse drawn equipment.

It could still be over 50 years old even with the zip code.
