7,5cm PanzerGranate 39 stencils

I noticed today while cleaning one 7,5cm PanzerGranate 39 that stencils on it have two different color red on it.Also i noticed that white FES text has been overwritten 92 text(This one is code for explosive inside?) Is this type overmarking normal for germans?

I have many of these same type projectiles and none of them have overwritten FES stencil.

I would just guess that FES was stencilled at projectile maker, but the filling details at filling laboratory ( Muna ) and thus possibly overwritten? All German over 20mm ordnance was filled in other place than the projectile body was made.

Even 7.92x57 were not all made by the factory loading the cartridges. All was a large interaction between many manufacturers.
