Thanks waywardangler and hosman321.  I found these in about 1994 and now that I think about it, they looked pretty new then.  I've always had an interest in antiques - finding that diamond in the rough, but never pursued it or educated myself on them so I appreciate your help!  If nothing else, they would make a good conversation peice hanging in our rustic game room once we build the house.

I was doing an internet search for info on the same type of skillet when I found this post.  I too have a 10" cast iron skillet with a raised fish on the bottom and I also have an 8" one with a raised duck.  These have no name or number or any symbols on them.  They were left in a storage room that was attached to an apartment I rented years ago. 

I also noticed that there are ridges/marks around the top edge of the skillet including around the handle that my other cast iron skillets do not have.  Can this help identify it? 

Anyone with info on how to identify them would be appreciated.
