Dies Meant to Strike the Morris's First Nova Constellatio Patterns Taken by the British in 1782?

I'm finalizing my article which will appear in the June issue of the Journal of Early American Numismatics (JEAN). In conducting research on the topic, I came across what I think could be new information from the fall of 1782 regarding the capture of the French frigate l'Aigle.

The entries in Robert Morris's diary and supporting documentation have led numismatists to conclude that the dies for the Nova Constellatio patterns were cut in Philadelphia. However, this may not have been the original plan for the mint. British newspapers from the fall of 1782 reported on the September 15th capture by the British of the French frigate l'Aigle after she was run aground on the Delaware River near Philadelphia. The l'Aigle was carrying specie to pay the French army and navy, as well as correspondence, and several French officers. Most of the specie was saved, and the passengers escaped, but it was reported that, (Ipswich Journal, November 30, 1782).

Here is more about the incident:
