I've identified the left stamp as a Type 701. I'm having a problem with Identifying the right stamp, though, as it appears to be similar to the Type 701 (font) but the spacing between city and state is not right.

Any ideas what precancel type this may be? According to the PSS there are only five known types for Athens, Ohio (509, 531, 548, 604 and 701) and only Type 701 seems to have a typeface with serifs.

Thanks! My mistake. I missed that one (the type 479, that is) when looking at the precancel possibilities, so there are actually six precancel types known for Athens, Ohio.
