I'm almost certain the plates were redone between the 150 and 350 runs. There are likely some holdovers where already printed 150's were run with 350 backs but only a few. The same probably happened between 350 and 460 runs too.
They really would have been redone for the coupons and other related sets, since the stones were expensive and the plates don't store well. Stones were typically resurfaced and reused for other jobs. The masters that were used to make the layout transfers would have been retained for some time.
