New to collecting but have used cast iron most of my 60 plus years. I have a couple of skillets I found in my dad’s stuff. The first one has an apparent gate mark with an off center 8 on the bottom, the heat ring is inset from the edge. The handle almost looks like it was added after casting and is thinner than average. The second skillet is pretty common in most cases. There is a very faint 8 on the handle and 10 1/2 inch skillet stamped on the bottom. It has a very unique heat ring. Any help in identifying the makers is appreciated. I’m sure they are nothing special, just curious. Thanks!
