Hi, I am new to old cast iron and would like to gets some thoughts. While looking for some old skillets to use outside I came across 2 3 leg skillets, first time I ever seen one, a 11" & 12". I noticed several differences about them. The 11" has crisp size on handle, defined lip around rim and a thick bulky gate mark and pitting inside. The 12" has messed up size on handle, different shaped lip around the rim and a thin clean looking gate mark and no pitting. They were marked higher than I wanted to spend so I just took pics and waited a couple of weeks before I went back and bought the 12" I did get $10 off, paid $65. The gate marks really make me wonder is one fake? And if you don't mind, let me know how I did and is the 11" worth $50-$60? Oh I also posted a couple pics of the Wagner Ware Pie Logo my husband found. Too bad is just a wall hanger but he and seller has learned that cast iron can be cracked. Thank you.
