In my hunts, I come across many pans that are pitted on the bottom in the center. I believe I've read on CIC that this is from the sulfur that used to be in natural gas, hence it's "more vintage" than others. But an elderly collector that I talk to says he used to work in a foundry and the pitting is from wet sand in the mold. Which version is more correct?
Also, I have tended to stay away from pitted pans mainly for the look of them, but party for the collectibility.
Any thoughts?
