I thought I had a set of Craftsman =v= DBE wrenches until today

Looking through some of the wrenches I bought at auction Saturday I came up with a 19/32---25/32 = = Craftsman DBE similar to the =v= wrenches.  Where does the = = wrench fit time wise with =v=?  Unfortunately it is not in good condition.

If I am understanding your question correctly the = = came either before or during the early part of =v= (there are some that say the marks are contract codes and others that say they are manufacturer codes) and  may have a v forged in the shank near one head or the other.
