I'm pretty sure that this was not suggested recently, so here goes.

-in ruins such as barrows instead of finding iron tools, weapons and armor. You would about 65% of the time find rusted variants of these. These new rusted items could be fixed up on an anvil so that they are no longer rusted. Also when breaking these items down in an unsmeltery, there would only be a 30% to get something back. These tools, weapons or armor pieces would also have a lowered durability so they would break faster. This could also happen to all iron over a long period of time.
