Antique Single Shank Ripper - What model is this?

My dad collected a few antique implements over the years, most of which are easy to identify. He passed away a couple of years ago, before we could talk about some of these things.

This single shank ripper has only the implement dealership sticker (Aurelia Implement - Aurelia Iowa) but no model/serial plate that I can find. It works because dad used to pull it around in the fall in the field down by the highway which drive mom crazy.

I think it's either a Deere 15 painted red (dad would totally have done that). Or maybe an IH model 2?

Could you help me figure out what I have here, and what a fair asking price should be for it if it works?

If it were a JD it should have a JD inscribed on the cast pieces. I think IH stuff would have PO or P&O for Parlin and Orendorf of whom IH bought out to get into the
tillage business. If it is something else then I am not sure how to identify it. If it is Massey Harris, Oliver, such maybe somebody here will know any identifying marks or
symbols.
 
Deere had the enclosed power lift. There should be a IHC emblem cast into the wheel side of the lift.

Aurelia implement is a iron jockey who would have just about any brand on the lot at any time, no franchise.

Guys I think you're right with the casting. I think this is the IH logo in the picture when I zoomed in.
Anybody have a guess on the range of what these are worth at an auction?

Thanks for the help.
