Default Just Wondering?

Does anyone know when Parker Bros. made the switch to the recessed hinge pin? And has the changeover ever been suggested as a catagory for Parkers Found?

It was a patented design by Charles A. King. Patent date was 1875.
The changeover is seen at around the 5,000 serial range.
