Modern copper pans are lined with stainless steal. Falk in Belgium pretty much makes all the copper material for cookware by using high pressure to fuse a thin layer of steal to a thick layer of copper. This makes the pans safe for any acidity and still benefits from coppers amazing conductivity.

You know nothing about this obviously.

But..GP was talking about old copper pans from estate sales that have lost their tin (not steel) coating.

Yeah in that case then I’d get them re-tinned. Might not be the easiest service to find today. I’d still prefer the modern ones though. They’re so good. By far the best cooking pots/pans for many use cases.
