Griswold Lids!

Hello Everybody!
I hope all is well,
This note is part “Show & Tell” and part question as well….
(I apologize for the quality of the images- took these in my basement last night…)

Up until last week, I have only ever found one CI lid (a hammered CHF lid that I posted some months ago), but as luck would have it, I found two Griswold lids in the same week- just pulled them out of the tank earlier this week….

The first: #5
On the top:
Griswold No 5 Self Basting Skillet Cover
Underneath:
Center ring: Griswold Cross
Second ring: Pat’D. FEB. 10. 1920. Pat’D. SEPT. 22. 1925. Erie PA., U.S.A. 465
The Second: #9
On the top:
Raised Griswold cross
Underneath:
Center ring: Griswold Cross
Second ring: Self Basting Pat. 1,330,209-1,554,360
Third ring: 9 1099A
I also ran a quick patent search- thought this was pretty cool!

The question that I had is that on bb page 46 it refers to the five basic styles of lids- some being high dome, and some being low dome—without having an example of each side by side, I am not 100% sure which are high or low dome… only further to confuse things the BB didn’t refer to a p/n on the lids.
Any thoughts or considerations would be super helpful!
