Supraphonic inside of shell oxidatoin?

Well looking in the shell of this supraphonic you see this:

It is consistent in all 360 degrees of the drum in just that bottom part. Is that some kind of oxidation that occurs, it doesn't look like rust. And it can't be brass because I am sure that the shell is not COB, since the pitting it has, although lately I have been debating about if the hoops were.

hi. i see the same looking into my supras an my supersensitive. i guess it's just some kind of dirt, or the plating hasn't gone quite down there. i wouldn't worry since it seems quite normal :-) if you wanna know if your hoops are brass, stick a magnet to them, if it sticks, they are steel, not brass, if it doesn't stick, voila, brass.....

Same with mine. I also wondered what caused that.
