By coincidence, these two CBHs crossed my path at nearly the same time, using the same '5' punch in the center of the obverse. Anyone have any thoughts about where it may have originated, or what the significance is?

They're cool and I imagine it was just somebody doing their thing back in the day.
In honor of the memory of Cpl. Michael E. Thompson
5 shillings maybe? I don’t know but I like it, cool find
While the 5's are quite similar, the inner seraph looks different.
Open 5 and Closed 5 varieties
Seem like random test cases for someone's new punch(es).
