Default Earliest "Hinge Pin" Lifter

In my Zeal to have an entry in "Parkers Found", I ask this group the following, as it has been suggested that the first known "Hinge Pin" lifter is serial # 5548. I own #5392 , 10 gauge, $125 Grade Lifter, that was completed on April 16, 1875, under the March 23rd 1875 Patent. (these guys did NOT fool around on a re-tool!). And It is indeed a recessed hinge pin gun.

Anyone have or know of an earlier one?
