My first guess is Wagner or BSR but it’s been a minute. Thank you! If you know, is it special? The thrift store wants $25

Wagner. Could be marked or unmarked, though the letter on the handle is making me lean unmarked. BSR doesn’t have the flat bit under the handle running into the skillet. 5 is a pretty common size I think. $25 isn’t bad but also not great. Decent price if you’re in the market for a great antique skillet to cook with.

I take it back. I think I see an “O” on the back which would suggest it’s a marked Wagner Ware Sidney 0

Wagner didn't mark pans with that handle shape.

OP, $25 would be top end price for fully restored and confirmed no cracks or other major damage. If you want a daily user and want to take a crack at restoring and the risk of finding damage underneath, go for it. But the pan itself isn't anything collectible if that's of interest to you.
