Another angle below. Very dinged up and the end and legs were missing, but seemed like to much hardwood to pass to.

But note that treatment and age can cause the pine to become harder. So even if it doesn't dent easily with a fingernail, I would still think it's pine.

Yeah, I can pretty easily scratch it with my fingernail, which seems the same as a 2x4 scrap and much softer than some oak and maple scraps I have around.

Also looking more closely at the bigger scratches and screw holes I see lighter wood visible, I was a bit fooled by the stain on the bottom.
