Picked it up for a song recently. I suspect it to be a BSR but it's kind of weird. Also, why is it so clean and skinny? It looks like aluminum but it's labeled as CI.

Have you experienced polished skillets before? I notice this pan is highly resistant to rusting even with no seasoning on it. Very uncanny

It might have some kind of coating and was only used decoratively. Make sure you give it a good scrubbing if you plan to cook with it.
