Hello,
in my collection is an unplated Bean Cobb (with broken key) which is also not marked with patent dates. The hinges are stamped with "548" and "558". And I noticed that the "corner" part of the bow (in front of the Ratchet teeth) is a little bit different from a "normal" (dated) Bean Cobb. Could this be a Hiatt's one?
