Even so, you wouldn't find rosin on the part of the fingerboard where you play in third position, or even fifth. Maybe for some stratospheric positions, but not those.

Well, depending on the age of the violin it only really tells you about
the last few years. Rosin builds up in weeks. If the violin is older
than a few years the rosin doesn't tell you much. Sometimes real
treasures hide underneath thick layers of dirt and rosin... not very
often, though.
