I’m guessing the finish chipped from the store cleaning the pan aggressively, but poorly, given the recent sticker date. Is that unusual? Gonna refinish it myself this week, as long as this isn’t setting off anyone’s alarm bells.

Edit: gonna head to the hardware store for a lead test kit and magnets this weekend, unless someone can think of a better process. Thanks for the advice, all!

    I just like a pan I can beat up remorselessly, and which aids my anemia when I do. I’ve reseasoned another pan already, but I’ve never thrifted before so confirming that no one has been melting soda cans, or something, into this thing felt like a reasonable question.
