Pitting could occur for different reasons. Perhaps it was buried for a time.

I agree with the above and would add surface staining. Maybe a candidate for Verdi-care?

Corrosion has already pitted the surface deeply, no saving that one.

Damage like this could have several causes. Environmental damage from burial is most likely; or maybe it was in a fire. Finally, some kind of hostile chemical environment - perhaps someone cleaned it long ago with lemon juice or vinegar, and didn't wash it properly afterwards.
