5 3/4" oval vs 6 3/4" round

Above: Oval on the left and round on the right

Note: there are no 'periods' after USA, Hosp, or Dept on the 5 3/4" oval cobalt. This point was cross checked by a longtime collector as he looked at his dug oval cobalts and found the same missing periods. On the round 6 3/4" cobalt and smaller cobalt ovals, the periods are there. The concern was prompted by fakes missing the periods in some cases. So missing periods on 5 3/4" cobalt ovals are normal.
