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.

It's shiny because it isn't seasoned. Easy fix.

I love that shiny look. But I also love how good a freshly seasoned pan looks too. Can't have your cake and eat it too I guess
