This is a vintage lodge, cast-iron Maple leaf cookie pan

It is used, but it has been in the bottom of a stove drawer for decades, being unused

That’s where the surface rust comes from. It’s just been in a drawer being unused for years and years and years. This is an estate find.

The rust you see in the photos is a very light surface rust. I don’t think it’s a big deal.

It’s genuine, vintage old good condition overall

I wiped it off with a rag did not use soap and water
