Would like to identify this old piece of farm equipment? And, if so, approx value? I'm asssuming it's some sort of harrow to tow behind old tractor?
Thanks in advance.

Your pictures are good but a picture showing the low front of the piece would help show what appears to be disks.
I believe your piece is called a disk harrow but I do see similar pieces called by other, similar names.
"In agriculture, a harrow (often called a set of harrows in a plurale tantum sense) is an implement for breaking up and smoothing out the surface of the soil. In this way it is distinct in its effect from the plough, which is used for deeper tillage."

This one looks similar but probably much older than yours.

I think this one is similar but older/horse drawn.

You can see that equipment like this can have several sized/shaped disks and most really vintage pieces were horse-drawn whereas yours appears to be a newer tractor pulled version.

As to value, you may be able to show pictures to someone at your local farm supply stores and they may also give you some suggestions on what sites to post your harrow for sale.
I feel sure they can tell you more about the age and value than you can find online.
Some stores will let you post pictures of items for sale so pay a visit to several to gain as much information as possible.
If no one here knows, you can go to the forum of this website to ask www.tractorbynet.com/
