<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 1211685, member: 21705&quot;]That is the current thinking and it makes sense. But the R punch of the S-5 is different from the R punch of the Chains and at least the first two or three Liberty Caps when they returned to the larger punches for LIBERTY. I believe it is also different from the later Caps. It&#039;s possible it was retouched by hand as many 1797s were when the B punch broke. But a return to the original punch for the Caps works against the S-5 preceding those Caps. I&#039;d be interested to see which other denominations used the large sized punches. It might be interesting to see if there is a match.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
