Original lug nuts?

Wanted some opinions about these lug nuts. Are they original SS wheel lug nuts? 1st design or 2nd? The seat looks really small compared to anything else I have seen.

That's how small the seats originally were.And if they're 7/16 too,they're definitely the 2nd design.

That small seat probably explains why the lug seats are destroyed on a lot of AO/YA wheels.
