Foot told you everything you need to know, really good info. The only thing you have to think about is the copper bottoms. Mostly that plate of copper is really thin, but if you aren't using the pan and store it for a long time, either outside your house or in an area where there is a lot of humidity, it can develop spots of verdigris. I don't know if the oil prevents that or not, it happened to me when some bronzed bookends and the Revere Ware stayed in a mini-storage for 10 years. The only other suggestion I would make is to always put a sheet of Viva or a paper table napkin between each of your pans nested together. Then they don't slide around and get scratched.
