Favorite #3 French Bowl Lid

I just recently added to my Favorite Smiley collection with a #3 French bowl and lid. I have not yet taken possession of it but I have pics, and I am curious about the lid. The handle and shape of the lid appear correct per the picture in the Favorite catalog, also the description in the catalog lists it as a self basting lid. but ive never seen a favorite with basting dripper rings like that. Is the lid correct? It appears to match in patina, and fit appears really good, as well as looking exactly like the picture in the catalog. Ideas?

This enameled 3 french bowl obviously has a correct lid as the markings would indicate it fits a 3 french bowl or 8 dutch oven, but theres no basting elements, but the description in the catalog indicates the lid is self basting

that's very interesting. from looking at the lid from the top/outside I would immediately assume it was a favorite piqua lid.. from the handle shape and those little points where it attaches... but I'm with you...I've never seen a FP lid with rings like that.
