Tethys
Caption NASA:"Tethys has a crater-saturated surface, where older, larger basins have been completely overprinted by newer, smaller impacts. This state is what scientists expect to see on a very old surface, where small impactors have struck more frequently than larger ones over several billion years. Larger impacts were more common events in the early history of the Solar System. 
This view looks toward the Leading Hemisphere of Tethys (1.071 Km, or about 665 miles across). North is up. The great scar of Ithaca Chasma is seen at right. 

The view was captured in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Sept. 25, 2006 at a distance of approx. 449.000 Km (such as about 279.000 miles) from Tethys and at a phase angle of 49°. Image scale is roughly 3 Km (about 2 miles) per pixel".
