I’m pretty sure this is a lodge based on the 3 notch heat ring and handle style, but the markings are throwing me off. I haven’t seen numbers stylized like this before (I’m fairly new so it may be normal), but most lodges I’ve seen have fairly blocky numbers. This also does not include the SK that most skillets have. Thoughts on whether this is or isn’t a lodge? Picked up at estate sale for $2 by the way.

Lodge #12??
- Thread starter R_Moore

The font is odd, as is the shape of the assist tab, although that shape tab is seen on some Lodge #14s, particularly the ones with the (U.S.) marking. Lodge pieces prior to the late 1950s or so do not have the markings like SK, DO, etc. A recently sold Lodge #12 on eBay has the tab like yours, but is a single-notch with a molder's mark. I think you can confidently say yours is Lodge.
