The nice thing about cast iron is, even if you fuck up the pan pretty good, you can always re-season it and it’s good to go.
Hell, even a the shittiest, oldest, rustiest cast iron pan is fine. Sand off the rust, and re-season!
I love watching the yardsale find ones.
I think most of the found in the mud behind the barn ones are staged though, it’s pretty easy to make a pan rusty.
It just shouldn’t have a crack in it.

Yep a vinegar bath can pit the metal, it’s why vinegar isn’t used to strip them.
Joshua Weissman recommends doing a 50% water and 50% white vinegar bath. https://youtu.be/PDTCgxvmShc
I still need to redesign mine after years of slight abuse…
Might even be a bit better after the sanding depending on the amount of post processing done by the manufacturer.
