20mm German Projectile Info Wanted

Can anyone offer me any info on this odd 20mm German projectile? The odd one has a crimp groove and some grooves on the base which the others do not have. It is different to the rest I have.

Thanks

All are 20x138B soloturm HE- tracer selfdestruct. The one with the groove is for a brass shellcase, the ones without are mostly placed on steel shellcases
Nice find.
