Cannot see the markings but the skillet that has “made in USA” stamped on it is not considered “collectible” or valuable in the cast iron world. Doesn’t mean it’s not a good skillet, just means that it’s not sought after like the Griswold or Wagner brands.

I have watched a few videos on you tube . I’m not looking to make any $ just wanna clean them up and hang them over my Weber’s . I’m new to the cast iron world just think the history is interesting . I wouldn’t mind collecting them if I can find them

If you’re not going to cook with them, a wire brush would knock off a lot of rust and grime so they can be displayed with some patina. If you want them to be more cook ready, first remove all the cooked on grease and carbon, then tackle the rust removal. After they’re clean and rust free, you can season them.
To my novice eye, it looks like 2 (the top two) appear to be a bit thinner walled than the third one. I would research those as potential cookers if they clean up nicely. Good luck!
Edit: if you post a picture of the bottoms of all the pans, you may get a little more info as to potential makers.

The ones that say a size followed by inch skillet are unmarked Wagner skillets

Yes unmarked Wagner on the one with “inch skillet made in the USA” marking without a heat ring. Make an electrolysis tank to clean them super easy and better than a wire brush.
The One The Only
