Found this today. 1-3/4" Deep, 11" OD. Gatemarked. Any idea on age or maker? I know it's a long shot!

No guessing, but here are some comparisons.
I think the Martin # 11 and the Lodge # 12 are ca 1960s.
The Patterson as far as I can find out from our foundry archive files is ca 1850s.
If that were mine it would be next in line to be used.  I swear I can hear that old iron giving thanks every time we cook with them.
