    		I assume you are referring to Abe Lincoln's device for "buoying vessels over shoals"

    What invention is this a patent for: US Design Patent #D645?

    Joan Barbour and George W. McGill are both listed (in different places) as having registered US patent #56,587 for a small, bendable brass paper fastener that was a precursor to the modern staple on July 24, 1866. So who DID in fact register that patent?

    Is there a difference between a patent and a design patent?
