Were Ranchos ever made with a sharp nose, and, if so, do you know the approximate dates they were made or the stamps on them (BB, Stable mid range, mid range, current stamp, etc).

Thanks as always. For the record, dgdave wouldn't love the PD if I hadn't spent 6 months telling him to throw one.

The original San Marino hasn't been made in a long time. The new one was supposed to be made to the same specs so I don't know why it would be blunter. It should say San Marino on the bottom. The Ranchos are made with a blunt nose that can be made blunter, but rarely is.
