Case Centennial plow, production from about 1930 into the 1950's I think, very good plow, it looks to be in decent shape from what I see, a good candidate for restoration and use.

PJ welcome to YT! You may have been led to
mistakenly call it a disk plow due to the 3 round disks
you see in front of each moldboard which are often
called bottoms for short. The proper name of the disks
are ..rolling coulters.. Their main function is to cut
vegetation and other matter on top of the soil so that it
separates cleanly. Then the moldboard flips it over and
whatever was on top of the soil is now buried in the
bottom of the furrow the previous share and
moldboard has cut. Longer vegetation such as a corn
stalk if not cut tends to get stuck on the beam that
supports the bottom and multiple one build up there
you eventually can get a plugged bottom. The rolling
coulter was designed to help minimize this problem.
The link shows an early blade or knife type coulter.
