yeah, like weighed on yer home scale...or, just not at an actual weighoff...

also, EW or Est.= estimated weight found by measuring the outside of the fruit and comparing that total to a chart---see the 'how-to' section on the home-page of this great site.

First time I saw that expression I thought it was just an exclamation, because that particular pumpkin were astonishingly beautiful and had won a price of that kind.
Some time later I realized just by myself that it wasn't the real minning, as Kyle said. Another time later I found out (just thinking by myself) that if that mark follows a real big one it use to be a crack or split or hole in the fruit, and if it follows a small one, it means that the pumpkin didn't go to any contest and was weighed at home.
Conclussion: I am rather naive than smart.

I asked the same question last year.

The only way you will learn such things is to ask questions or do the research on your own.

That is why this site is here, so keep asking!
