Yes because there could be a thousand patents a day to search thru..Looks like aug 20 ,, sorry dident know we needed the Exact day..
Your images arent coming up for me. 8/23/92 was a Saturday which is a good day for patents.Looks like it is either a tool for threading axles:

or a trolley protector:

These were issued on 8/23 /1892, all the other ones are not even close.

Good observation and I agree. My pic from the auction is upside down. I actually searched for the patent but couldnt find it.I believe the ID is correct, but if this is the right patent, then I think it hangs the other way with the hook part on top.
