Thrift Shop Dutch Oven Jackpot!

Went to a local thrift store I've never been too in the 20 years I've been in the area. It's in a bit more run down part of town on a very beat up road. I walked in and was pleasantly surprised to how well it was put together and the selection. I've been looking for a large enameled dutch oven for slow cooking my birria as i usually make 8 pounds at a time and the wife doesnt like me taking up table space with 2 crock pots. I was wandering the cooking section as I love old bakeware and cookware. If it has made it 60 to 70 years already its good for another 40. When out of the corner of my eye I spot what looks to be enameled cookware. I see the price tag and it's a bit more than their standard pots and pans and then see LE CREUSET on the price tag. I already own a few Dutch ovens and knew from looking at it that it was either the 8qt or the 9qt. I have no knowledge of this brand other than I've seen it used recently on some food network cooking competition so I knew it had to be rather decent. I took a look over it and saw an H on the inside and on the bottom. Confused me as most cast has numbers. Did a quick ebay search as well as going directly to the manufacturers website to compare with new. After glancing back after I realized what I had possibly found I snatched it up and brought it to the front and asked if I could keep it behind the counter till I was done shopping. After walking around for about 10 minutes I heard 3 different people inquire about the Dutch oven. I decided it was time to get out of there before someone else said it was theirs. When I got to the check out the younger lady told me 3 people had asked if was going on the floor for purchase. As she was finishing the transaction an older lady who worked there walked up and looked at it and said "well someone got a great deal." Went home and after a bit of research i believe i have a 1970-71 Le Creuset 9qt dutch oven in Blue Belle H size ( would be considered a 22 now i believe. ) filled it with hot water and some baking soda and brought it to a boil. Everything else that didnt come loose i hit with a baking soda paste. This is the best thrift shop find of my life. Can't wait to sear some steaks and make birria in this beast!​​
