Hi Ed---
But does a plated pan cook slippery as a well-seasoned bare cast iron? I'm
doubting it. good luck, though--yr pal gam in OlyWA
How horrible it is to have so many people killed!---And what a blessing one
cares for none of them!

thanks all
lots of good info on the site that Matt referenced. I think it is nickel
because it is a warmer tone, and also the small logo which helps date it. Also,
a plated pan does not need to be seasoned!
