>     I'm looking desperately for a set of punctuation steel stamps 

    Bekka, save yourself the desperation and a huge amount of money and
    make them yourself - It's really not that hard. I'd suggest going to
    onlinemetals.com - there are other places, too. 3/8" O-1 square stock
    will cost you just over $1/inch. W-1 drill rod is a lot cheaper, but
    the square stock is nice. It's supplied annealed, so just square off
    the end, draw your shape and cut around it with files, burs, stones,
    sawblades, whatever does the job. Then harden and temper and you have
    a stamp for $3..... A parenthesis is just an arc, a comma is just a
    little arc with a dot, maybe. It's really not that hard to do...
