Lodge #2 Skillet

I have a skillet with all the characteristics of a single notch Lodge. It is marked 2 on the handle and is the same exact dimensions as a #2 Wagner. I can't find any information on it. Did Lodge make a #2 skillet? Oddly it has a number 3 on the bottom but it is not a number #3 skillet. Any info on this one would be appreciated.


 
Probably should discount it being an actual Lodge, as they did not put incised size number on the tops of handles. Comparing these to an actual Lodge #3, the difference is minimal enough that in all likelihood a #3 Lodge was used as a pattern by some other foundry, and the difference chalked up to the shrinkage that would be expected in that case. Why they numbered them 2 but left the 3 visible on the bottom is odd.
