Large Iron Pan

Quite rusted. The only mark that I found so far is what looks like 116?
Any idea who the maker might be?

 

Are you sure it's iron? Maybe carbon steel? The handle does not look iron to me, but that's JMHO

 

No idea how to tell cast iron from cast steel.

 

Carbon steel would be thinner, cast iron very thick and heavy?

 

Well, it’s a large piece but it is very heavy and thick.

 

The handle part is almost certainly not cast iron. I'd say wrought iron or maybe mild steel.

Can't see enough of the vessel part to tell the material.

 

With that long handle probably for camp fire cooking?

 

I was thinking industrial, but just a guess.

 

Looks like this one but handle is attached differently.
