I covered the 1792 Quarter dollar patterns and the reverse die with the border of stars in mybook on the bust quarters (published 2008). Please find below the section copied from thatbook.

I agree with Tom DeLorey - a blank die with stars from 1792 does not make much sense, however itis possible that the starred reverse large cent die was one that Wright was working on when hesuccumbed to the yellow fever in late 1793. As stated by Dave Bowers, Robert Scot could have thencompleted it to create the finished S-48 reverse die. Just a thought...
