How many screws typically were painted on a Metuchen car rear valance?

Have a couple of different patterns showing up so far as I go through my pictures. Looks to possibly connected to when the car was assembled. Will look through 67 and 69 also for additional possible help in responding

Agreed that is what typically I've seen. Just an odd ball or two but those may suggest that the valance was removed and reinstalled with the same screws - Knocking off the paint on some and not others
